Not really, no. With KF8 is relatively easy to get back to something very, very near to the original source (which in turn can be converted with no--or very, very little--change). Same with the original MOBI. Print Replica is merely a wrapper around a PDF. With KFX, there is no clear path back, the way I understand it. KFX is already partially rendered (from the original) for the specific device/app it's being downloaded for. It just won't make as good an archival format as EPUB or KF8 does. Without the KFX rendering engine, it's fairly pointless as an ebook format.
