No I don't think so. It is a totally different system from that found in the 1st gen cars. In those, the power steering system was electro-hydraulic, meaning, the power steering pump was driven by an electric motor (not an engine belt) but still used a fluid based hydraulic system.

In the newer MINIs, your steering is fully electric. No fluid and no PS pump.
