Not without having a frame builder braze the posts on, no.
With that said, I'm sure you could have any of the Waterford built Rivs: Hilsen, Roadeo and Atlantis (or a custom) built with the Compass centerpull posts in the position that they require to install the brakes. Riv would need to be willing to do it of course.
I doubt very much you could get that kind of custom work on a stock model like the Hilsen, Atlantis or Roadeo. Part of the economies of scale that keep the prices on these stock frames below one-off customs is the standardization and possibility of batch mode production, and no way is that compatible with custom mounting of unique brake braze-ons. However, any knowledgeable frame builder could do it. It would cost you, though, because not only do you have to remove the old canti posts and braze new ones on for the centerpull brakes, you also would have to repaint the frame.
