Yes. But for heaven's sake, don't.

The Replicant developers (I'm one of them now; I just joined) are working hard to bring you a mobile device without proprietary software as much as possible. If you install proprietary software on your device, there is no point to using us. You might as well use CyanogenMod, which comes with that firmware pre-installed.

To answer some other questions, mobile devices do not have a "Wi-Fi card" like desktops and laptops. They have a modem, which controls all network communications (including telephony and data). The modem and the OS interact through the RIL (Radio Interface Layer). Wi-Fi and Bluetooth will not work at all without those blobs, under any circumstances.

The good news is, I'm going to try decompiling them. Stay tuned.
