I'm affraid it just dosent work that way. The two bracing systems are not designed to work either way. Try it for yourself but don't bitch about it when the bridge on your nylon drops or pops off the neck bows the end of the fret board dissappears into the soundhole, the tuners wont hold and the gears slip never to work again and you end up with an action that the Great Valerio could use to practice his high wire routine on.

some guitars just look like classical guitars but in fact are light gauge steel/silk steel strung parlor guitars or repliclas or modern representations of historic steel/silk strung guitars.
so for all practical purposes
NO
