No, prototype is not really able to do this and much of XWiki and extension js
depends on $ being bound to prototype.

I have experience with jquery, as of XWiki 5.2 you can access that using 
requirejs.
require(['jquery'], function ($) {   $('#xwikicontent').append('<p>hello 
world</p>') });

I recommend wrapping metrojs in a similar function to avoid conflicts while
still giving it access to jquery as it requires.

prototype is (gingerly) moving toward retirement and the best support will
always be found in the jQuery world.
