No it wouldn't. Wordpress is a CRM system at its heart and thats really all its there for. symfony is much lower level than that and you cannot have a generic installer created for it because there are far too many possible variables to consider and so many different ways you can develop an application with symfony that a single installer would never be able to meet all the demands of the developers.
THATS why symfony is popular, because it isn't a CRM application, and it allows you to do far more the way you want for your own needs, including how you want to deploy it.
