Not without monkeypatching the re module:
import re
_original_compile = re._compile
def _wrapped_compile(*key):
try:
custom_compile = key[0].__compile__
except AttributeError:
return _original_compile(*key)
else:
return custom_compile(*key[1:])
re._compile = _wrapped_compile
class Aaa(object):
def __compile__(self, *args):
return re.compile("[Aa]+")
print re.findall(Aaa(), "a yadda so whaaaat")
