Sure, but the pypy equivalent of cpython is pypy-c.  You would
probably not want to have cpython and jython with the same name by
default, nor would you probably want to have pypy-c and pypy-jvm with
the same name.  The reason it matters is that applications may depend
on particular integration features, or not, in which case whatever
backend is available is fine.
