no, sorry. the driver treats multitouch devices as such and passes on the
multitouch events. only by purposely disabling can you force the driver back
into the old mode (which technically isn't done by the driver either, it's
just that the driver then only sees some events from the kernel and the
kernel does legacy event emulation).
