It can be done, but I don't like the approach very much. It is a way of roughly mimicking the approach used in Tensor. Nevertheless, see the section:
6.4.1 Cytochrome c2 – optimisation of the diffusion tensor in my PhD thesis on page 209. I have no scripts to do this, but the protocol is very basic. This section and the corresponding methods section describe fully how to implement this. If you don't have the link handy, the thesis is at http://eprints.infodiv.unimelb.edu.au/archive/00002799/.
