Right thread but the short answer is no. It would involve hideously complicated pattern matching in 3-dimensions.
The long answer is sometimes. Trivial cases such as mosaics and not so trivial mosaics of printed tiles have been done before. Similarly there are two programs I know of that can take a 3D model and convert it to bricks, one does it studs up but Lsculpt does it very cleverly. LSculpt is probably the closest to what you're after.
