Fred, So much in uPortal, Bedework, etc. assumes XSLT for transformation of data into different views, but yes, it should be possible. The templates in uPortal are very configurable, and you could use custom JSP with whatever taglib you wanted and write custom portlets as well that use whatever taglibs you want- but if within portlets, they will need to be compatible with the portlet spec.
So before you start doing a lot with the templates, you'll want to be sure that you can use the tag library you are intending to use from within a custom portlet. I'm almost positive that if the taglib is looking for user-agent that it might need some mods to work within a portlet. I've seen a number of messages on the uportal-user list about getting access to user-agent from within portlets, so that is where you might start looking. Then after you're sure that you can get a custom portlet using your library you could start your template development.
