No. The Fossil repo is completely self contained and does not depend in any
way on the git repo or even on the git-export file it was created from.

Once the data is in the Fossil repo it cannot be changed. Any changes have
to be done either in the git repository before exporting, or on the
exported file before importing. I am not familiar enough with git to know
if such tools exist, or even if these things are possible.
