Yes, something like this. Due to
MFINPUTS = .;$TEXMF/metafont//;{$TEXMF/fonts,$VARTEXFONTS}/source//
it has to be in the metafont directory instead of the source directory,
though.

Compatibility with teTeX 3.0 packages
-------------------------------------
There is an unfortunate filename duplication between tetex-base and
texlive-lang-greek. Both contain a file called 'x.mf'. If you want to
use the Levy fonts or the Metafont versions of the Ibycus fonts together
with teTeX 3, you should copy
/usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/source/public/levy/x.mf
to /usr/local/share/texmf/metafont/levy/x.mf and update the filename
database with mktexlsr.
