In principle yes, as long as your
imputation model allowes it. The problem
is that your imputation model should be at
least as flexible as your model of interest.
Including an fracpoly model or their kin in
an imputation model seems to me a far from
trivial task. So in practice I would say no.
Hope this helps,
Maarten
