No, not directly. But there are a couple of things you can do instead.

The key in both my solutions is to have a single C++ object with a 
property registered to QML:

   class LocaleUpdater : public QObject {
     Q_OBJECT
     Q_PROPERTY(QString localeChange READ localeChange
       NOTIFY localeChanged)
   ...
     QString localeChange() const { return QString(); }
   };

Export this to the QML:

   LocaleUpdater updater;
   qml.rootContext()->setContextProperty("localeUpdater", &updater);

When the language changes, have the LocaleUpdater emit the 
localeChanged() signal. You can now do one of two things:

1) Use the text updater string directly:

   someObject.text: qsTr("Foo") + localeUpdater.localeChange

2) Catch the emitted signal and set all strings

   Connections {
     target: localeUpdater
     onLocaleChange: {
       someObject.text = qsTr("Foo")
     }
   }

I hope this helps.

Bo.
