No idea. But there is nothing that prevents one from trying it out. The 
change required is to add the following lines:

ifeq ($(NATIVE_LIBS_ENABLED),yes)
ERL_COMPILE_FLAGS += +native
endif

immediately before the

ERL_COMPILE_FLAGS += ....

line in the corresponding Makefile. (e.g in lib/ssl/src/Makefile)
