No, due to patent issues.

rpm.livna.org might (I haven't looked) have a kernel module for ntfs  
read support, but AFAIK the only ntfs write support that exists is very  
experimental and can not change the size of the file.

Me - I just use a fat32 partition and use that to share files between  
Linux and Windows.
