No, but here is head of main from ppmmerge.c:
int
main( argc, argv )
int argc;
char* argv[];
{
register char* cp;
again:
if ( ( cp = rindex( argv[0], '/' ) ) != (char*) 0 )
++cp;
else
cp = argv[0];
if ( strcmp( cp, "ppmmerge" ) == 0 )
{
++argv;
--argc;
if(!*argv) {
fprintf(stderr, "Usage: ppmmerge ppm_program_name [args ...]\n");
exit(1);
}
goto again;
}
#define TRY(s,m) { if ( strcmp( cp, s ) == 0 ) exit( m( argc, argv ) ); }
TRY("bmptoppm", bmptoppm_main);
TRY("gouldtoppm", gouldtoppm_main);
TRY("ilbmtoppm", ilbmtoppm_main);

No, I have done

and it works, but this method consumes 9MB instead of 1.5MB of disk space.
