No, it cannot be added to central. But you can add it to a repo in your own repository and it will then be possible to use internally in your corp. If you've set up a group which all users use, just add the repo that contains the tools artifact to that group and the users don't have to reconfigure anything (like adding a new repo). If you haven't already, now you see one of the benefits of using a repo manager.
