Yes, certainly. That's exactly my plan. The Interchange core modules are intended to be framework- and datasource agnostic,
e.g. Nitesi::Cart has only generic methods. Same will go for instance for payment methods.

On top of that you put some glue for your framework, data source. Please look at the existing examples:
