We'll have to wait for the first Pentax USM lens to know the true. Right now we can only speculate - as usual. As a matter of fact quite old and venerable Nikon F4 can use AF-S lenses with ultrasonic motor, so maybe some current Pentax bodies would be able to use future USM lenses too? As usual we have to wait... Unfortunately some people get tired too easily of long waiting... I can understand them.
