Yes.

For example, you can use "linux-yocto" kernel recipes in poky/meta/recipes-kernel
by overriding the following varibales in
meta-debian/conf/distro/include/debian-preferred-provider.inc
(or create your custom layer and define your own distro conf)

PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/kernel = "linux-yocto"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_linux-libc-headers = "linux-libc-headers"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_nativesdk-linux-libc-headers = "nativesdk-linux-libc-headers"

Currently, meta-debian is maintained with 4.4 based kernel,
so I'm not sure if it's fully compatible with 3.14 based YP BSP kernel.
Some recipes or configs might need to be adjusted to work with the 3.14 kernel.
