Yes:
	alias	cd	'cd `xcd $cwd \!*`'

...where `xcd' is the following shell script, located somewhere in your
PATH.  (You may have to change the `cd' in the alias to `chdir'.)

#!/bin/sh

# alias cd 'cd `xcd $cwd \!*`'

case $# in
1)
	echo $HOME
	exit 0

2)
	case $2 in
	/*)
		echo "$2"
		exit 0

		echo "$1/$2"
		exit 0
	esac
