Yes and no.  

I tryied what you sugest but it did not work.  It is just too many diferences.  
I am doing it in steps now as I could not make Matpower to work for me.

You need to have system description in a phase frame of reference and then you 
need to modyfy code to calculate in a phase frame of reference.
See Arrillaga/Arnold book for details.
Radial systems are much cleaner/easier if you can just focus on them, but NR 
and L methods are time consuming to develope and test.

Good luck!
