I'm pretty sure you're the first person to ask that question.  Or at least the 
first I've heard it.

Obviously the macaque and human brains have different scales, but it might, in 
principle, be possible.  Computing a volumetric transform from the F99 
individual monkey volume to either MNI305 or avg152T1 mean human atlases 
doesn't seem likely to work well.

But I think David registered the F99 surface to the same 73730 mesh as the PALS 
human atlas.  (He had a good reason for doing so.)  If that is in the Sept 2006 
tutorial dataset, then you could load the F99 paint areas on the PALS atlas and 
use Attributes: Paint to project them from surface-land to volume-land, using 
the PALS flirt, SPM, or MRITOTAL surface as the mapping substrate.

Hopefully David will chime in if the F99-to-PALS correspondence makes this a 
bad idea.

(Let's face it:  We must always approach cross-species registration with a long 
list of caveats.)
