Kind of. It can be done with git-read-tree. I.e.:

 $ git-read-tree --index-output=.git/tmp-index <branch-name> && \

    git update-ref HEAD <branch-name>

This does not appear to do what you think it will. git update-ref will write the SHA1 of <branch-name> into the current HEAD, not switch HEAD to a new branch.

However, the first two lines will correctly update the index to the new head which is probably a good idea.
