Definitely. iCab allows that through the contextual menu ("Link->Open in This Window"). It might be faster if it can also be done with modifier keys.

We already have quite a few link click modifiers taken, including Cmd-Opt-click. I'll make a feature suggestion to add something.

In Safari, as in Firefox, you can already ensure a link opens in the same window by dragging it and dropping it on the address field. So there are multiple reasonable ways for a UA to implement it, just as there are multiple reasonable ways for a UA to indicate whether a link is specified to open in a new window in the first place. So it is fair for HTML5 to encourage those things, but beyond that, this discussion may be getting a bit off-topic.
