Longer story short: no :) Almost everything that polyglossia and babel  
have in common are implemented in pretty different ways. And there're  
lots of new features that we'd like to add to polyglossia (e.g., like  
the mem package) but the base packages of LaTeX don't really have  
features added to them any more...
