No. with WMS features only live on the server, in the client you get a
view of a feature (as an image or info response).
To accomplish this you could do WMSGetFeatureInfo first and then
LoadFromWebService or (what i've done in the past) create a smart
proxy that handles this on the server so that WMSGetFeatureInfo
returns LoadFromWebService information.
