Last time I checked it is possible. I used to do the same for doing 
iPhone testing but you need a rather complex test launch script if you 
want something other than full static binary testing. The way I got it 
to work was to have this in your user-config.jam:

===
using darwin : 4.0.1~iphone~coda
        : 
/Developer/Xcode-$(xcode)/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/usr/bin/g++ 
-arch arm
        : 
<root>/Developer/iPhone-Coda-$(xcode)/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer
                <striper>
        :	<architecture>arm <target-os>iphone
        ;

toolset.add-requirements
        <toolset-darwin:version>4.0.1~iphone~coda:<testing.launcher>"itest.sh"
        <toolset-darwin:version>4.0.1~iphone~coda:<runtime-link>static
        <toolset-darwin:version>4.0.1~iphone~coda:<link>static
        ;
===

The important part being the "toolset.add-requiremtns" declaration so 
that the test script gets used for all targets. In my case since I was 
dealing with dynamic libs my script does a nasty dance of running 
"otool" and copying the dependent libs along with the executable (see 
attached script).

HTH.
