I wrote this queston to SM and they did not answer it.  If you read between the lines it looks like no.
I can't get to their links, but I dont really want a workaround. I want a work.  Perhaps SM think their figures are just as nice as daz ones and why don't we just use theirs?

My question was "I know it isn't SMs fault, but it looks like DAZ have made their F4 figure to only work well in DS. Is it possible you could somehow adjust poser in a service release so that Freak 4 and ongoing daz figures will work properly? This is very important to my posing happiness. I would hate to have to start using Daz Studio as I much prefer poser."
Their reply was "
I apologize for the difficulties. DAZ3D Indicates that the Freak 4 Clothing may not be compatible with Poser. Poser has always used the propagated scaling. DS has started using Smooth Scaling, which is not compatible. There are a few links with instructions and tips on getting these items to work in Poser.
