theoretically yes, and should be relatively trivial with libinput. The alternative would be to let kdrive use the xfree86 API hooks for input drivers. That is orthogonal to the InputClass support though which comes from the xorg.conf system. That would have to split out of hw/xfree86 and move into a higher-level configuration. all technically possible but it's a fair bit of work and no-one has done it so far.
