Probably not. I wanted to use IMAPdir for ages but never could. The biggest problem is vpopmail, but everything else that touches the maildirs (i.e. maintenance scripts, other mail servers, etc.) will need to be reviewed.
Just as a tip - there was a maildir2IMAPdir perl script posted to this mailing list a long time ago that creates, when it migrates you from one to the other, symbolic links so that Maildir and IMAPdir kindasorta exist alongside each other. It keeps vpopmail happy, because it can continue delivering to Maildir (which just so happens to be IMAPdir/INBOX, really). It also keeps most scripts happy too - the only thing that gets messed up is creating new folders.
