Yes.
I've got one of Tester's OG UTP (alloy) which has been machined to take a 1/8" ring.
You don't want to do that with carbon (obvs), so your options are a) machine the ring, b) get a ring made by Fibrelyte, or c) go 3/32".
When I got some carbon cranks, I was going with a). However once I learned that the use of 1/8" is largely down to tradition and the only practical consideration is being able to swap spares at the track, I stuck with 3/32".
