No... I don't think so, but maybe someone else has an idea.

Btw, you might also get into problems because the book class doesn't have 
abstracts for each chapter, which you typically want for an article.. 

On the other hand, you will hopefully only submit the articles once, so 
you won't have to change them to article class very often.
