Can DC.js controls be used to filter D3.js controls?

Question

There are many examples showing the seamless grouping and filtering between DC.js controls. However, can DC controls be used to filter the results displayed from a D3.js control? (example: DC pieChart used to filter D3 force-directed chart by Color Group)

The desired outcome is to select the Color Group from a pie chart and have it filter the nodes from the D3 control. I understand the 2 can co-exist on the same page; however, can DC interact with D3 in this manner or is there a difference approach?

Example (Pseudo Code):

//Color Group Data
data = [
    {
     "Group": "Orange",
     "Color": "Coral"
    },
    {
     "Group": "Orange",
     "Color": "Dark Orange"
    },
    {
     "Group": "Yellow",
     "Color": "LemonChiffon"
    },
    {
     "Group": "Yellow",
     "Color": "PapayaWhip"
    },
    ...
]

//Crossfilter Code Here to establish Dimension
var ndx = crossfilter(data);
groupDim = ndx.dimension(function(d) {return "" + d.Group;}); 


//Pie Chart to Display Simple Colors
var colorsChart = dc.pieChart("chartColors");
...
dc.renderAll(); 


//Force Directed chart, would be used to display all nodes of colors
var force = d3.layout.force()
.charge(-120)
.linkDistance(30)
.size([width, height]);

var svg = d3.select("body").append("svg")
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height);
