I don't think so. Last time I checked the idea was:

var new_xwt = xwt.clone(xwt);
new_xwt..xwt.theme ++= function() { return .path.to.theme; }
new_xwt..path.to.main(xwt.box);

This:
   line 1 - creates a new xwt universe in variable new_xwt
   line 2 - uses a read trap to replace xwt.theme with
            specific theme inside the new universe
   line 3 - applies the main template from the new universe
            to a new box.

Whenever something inside the main template tries to reference
xwt.theme, it gets the result of the read trap we placed on
it, silently redirecting it to the theme of our choice.

Self-emulation is the idea.
