John, No you can't. Here is an excerpt from one of Jonathan Lewis' articles on his web site:
"The final consequence of converting a dictionary tablespace to a locally managed tablespace is that xxx_tablespaces will show the extent_mangement to be "LOCAL", but the allocation_type to be "USER". Clearly, the examples above show that Oracle will in general be unable to use autoallocate on the tablespace, and if it switched to uniform the consequences of having a unit size of one block could be disastrous. After conversion, extents will be allocated according to the normal next_extent methods, with the proviso that rounding to the unit size will occur."
