Absolutely not!
The short arm requires a barrel on the end of the cable. You would need a cable with a barrel end for the shifter and another barrel end to attach it to the demultiplicator and it would have to be precisely the right length. With a barrel at both ends, there's no way to feed the cable through.
That's my bike. I do have some experience with demultiplicators.
