Not to my knowledge.  Also, I doubt that it would even be possible since
the Build engine uses a pseudo-3D map that occasssionally places sectors
ontop of other sectors - the same effect can't be reproduces in other
engines such as UT.  

The only way to convert the map into full-3D format is to actually write a
custom engine that can have overlapped (i.e. warped) regions in space.
