I don't think so.  Skype created their own secret protocol so that
they could lock users into their network.  The best bet is to get
Skype users to switch to Gizmo http://gizmoproject.com/.

Why?  Because it's as easy to use  and install as Skype if they're
afraid of technology and it uses standard open protocols.  Some people
on this list have reported using Ekiga to interact with Gizmo users.
