No, it's not.

Because it doesn't make sense.  While things within a nib are
reconstituted together, there's no logical relationship between two
nibs.  You might instantiate a nib dozens of times (think of your
document nib) but only instantiate other nibs once (think your main
menu nib).  What sense would it make to wire things up between the
nibs?  And how would IB know that it doesn't make sense?
