No, not unless you reconfigure Binutils to include ELF support and then 
rebuild Binutils from sources.

Note that object code usually includes hidden dependencies on some 
private features of the library on the platform where they were compiled.
So object files compiled on Linux might not link with DJGPP-compiled
code, unless the sources compiled on Linux didn't call any functions
from libc.a.
