It could be, but as far as I know, hyphenation is turned on _because_ you use justification. Good justification is impossible without hyphenation, or the interword spacing would be way too big sometimes. This problem doesn't exist with left align - then the line simply ends when there isn't enough room for the next word. Some will also say that the point of using left align is to avoid the hyphens.
I wonder though, why you would even want to print a book left aligned. Some special reason? Usually, it is quite ugly and looks unprofessional. Like it was made with an amateur tool like word - or by someone who don't know better. But of course there may be valid and good reasons for doing so. Still, look at some random books from ordinary publishers and I don't think you find any set left aligned. Helge Hafting
