AFAIK no.
In KDE we also had these libtool convenience libraries. 
We don't have that anymore, we just compile all the files directly into one 
library.
We didn't have any issues with this since then.

(it may be possible to hack something together with custom commands to extract 
the object files from the ar archives and put them together into a resulting 
ar file but I wouldn't recommend this)
