I don't think so.  To write a UBI volume on an existing UBI device,
you would use the "ubi write" command.  This translates into a call of
ubi_volume_write(char *volume, void *buf, size_t size)  which means
the size must be known before you start writing; as far as I can tell
ubi_volume_write() does not support incremental write operations of
individual "parts" of a volume.
