if the new CMake generator builds an XML project file like it is done at the
moment, sure. Why shouldn't that be possible? At the moment you can build one
with e.g. cmake -G "CodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles" (I am sure you know that. But
especially because of that, I do not fully understand your question).

CMake needs to be able to build with the generator being used so that it can be tested. Just because "CodeBlocks - Unix Makefiles" is able to build a file, does not mean the new "CodeBlocks Native" generator is able to build the same file. So, for "testability" cmake will need to drive the CodeBlocks build. It would be great to have a native CodeBlocks IDE XML file. It maybe difficult if CodeBlocks does not support building all the things cmake can build.
