Not really,

Anirudha managed to get the mxe build of Octave to work on OSX but he 
required many  dependencies to be already installed via macports in order 
to do so, which made it completely useless.

He never even tried to build a relocatable .app bundle.

I don't know whether cross-compiling for OSX is possible technically,
but it is not legally possible AFAIK.
