Not easily. You can call normal python code, provided that you run pypy 
interpreter, not cpython. This means that stuff like re are working, but 
stuff like pygtk or any 3rd party modules doesn't.

Also calling is very different. You can take a look at module/_demo if 
you like, but there are obstacles, like you cannot compile only your 
module, you need each time to compile whole interpreter (which takes 
~30minutes on decent machine). It's very unlikely you want to use it 
that way :)
