Yes, in principle.

You would define your own command. Something like

\def\myinvertedauthor#1#2#3#4#5%
    {{\sc #3}%
    \bibdoif{#1}{\bibalternative{surnamesep}#4\unskip}%
    \bibdoifelse{#2}{\bibalternative{vonsep}#2\unskip}{\unskip}%
    \bibdoifelse{#5}{\bibalternative{juniorsep}#5\unskip}{\unskip}%
}

The interface isn’t finished yet, so you’ll have to wait a bit. But this is a 
good occasion to remind Hans that formatting needs for bibliographies can vary 
widely, so we need as much configurability as possible.
