Just for fun, I just pp'ed the script pp itself and tried to use the resulting executable to pack a hello world script - doesn't work. It complains about missing core modules, but I checked that they have been correctly packed into the expected area. There are some subtle ordering restrictions during the bootstrapping process of a packed executable and pp seems to run afoul of them. So short answer: nope either.
