No.

Nor can you build it against kernel-sourcecode for that matter.

You can only build against the headers in /lib/modules/`uname `r/build, just
like it was the case ever since RHL 7.0.
(except that now the cheat of using another location no longer works)

because it is redundant and mostly pointless. We don't ship
openoffice-source code either, right?
