No, because if you do that, programs like slrn will try to use colour, which means they are almost impossible to read and leave you with silly colours like white on black when you quit. (on a vconsole, slrn's colours are easier and white on black is normal so it doesn't matter that that's what you get when you quit) If they (and presumably all slang programs) are fixed to do something sensible with colours, then maybe.
