Nope. The license for glibc is not one we'd want to use for such a
core component (which is less optional than, say, grep) nor does our
libc lack for the kinds of features which would make switching
necessary.
Those wishing to play with the HURD under FreeBSD can simply add glibc
to the list of components they need to bring over; they needs of the
few do not outweigh the needs of the many in this case. :)
