It doesn't seem to work:

$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
        xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)"       };
        xkb_types     { include "complete+numpad(microsoft)"    };
        xkb_compat    { include "complete"      };
        xkb_symbols   { include "pc/pc(pc105)+pc/us"    };
        xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)"     };
};
$ setxkbmap -option numpad:nomicrosoft
$ setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
        xkb_keycodes  { include "xfree86+aliases(qwerty)"       };
        xkb_types     { include "complete+numpad(microsoft)"    };
        xkb_compat    { include "complete"      };
        xkb_symbols   { include "pc/pc(pc105)+pc/us"    };
        xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)"     };
};
