they could, but it was an effort to do so.
any "ordinary" external would not be able to do it.
the only library that i am aware of that did override internal classes 
is cyclone, and krzysztof did some awful work fuddling with the 
classtable of pd_objectmaker.
i think the code is in the  "fragile" (sic!) part of cyclone.

so in general the answer is "no".
