It's probably possible but usually not necessary. Even on a modest system a 
full build takes only 20 minutes and an incremental rebuild is less than 3 
minutes (even faster if you use sjavac or JDK_FILTER).

I agree, it shouldn't really be necessary to do partial builds any more (it was way too fragile in the past with the old build). That said, the new build does have --with-import-* options to configure the build to import some of the components from another JDK.
