Sort of.  To be more precise, as a framework provider you may require that
participating objects provide a particular interface.  The framework user
may 1) create a subclass of one of your classes, 2) add an implementation
of your interface to an existing class of theirs, or 3) use your class as
is, using SkinScript or other means to form an "adapter" between your
desired interface and their existing objects.
