Almost anything is possible, but ... I had a points booking at a HP that was reflagged to a Hilton property before my stay. My Hyatt reservation wasn't honored. While not 100% analogous, I'd think it would be easier to construct a mechanism to pay for my stay compared to the indirect relationship between Hyatt and the property you've booked, with SLH somewhere in the middle.
