[nsp] Retaining EIGRP metrics when using BGP

Is it possible to transport EIGRP metrics across a BGP backbone?

D       128.103.1.0 [90/307200] via 128.104.1.1, 00:07:23, Ethernet0/0

D       128.102.1.0 [90/412300] via 128.104.1.1, 00:07:23, Ethernet0/0

These two routes are in Router 1.  Router 1 and Router 2 connect to each other
using eBGP with many transit AS's in between.  Router 2 redistributes BGP back
into EIGRP.  Is there any way for router 2 to see the metric 307200 for
network 128.103.1.0 when it is redistributed from BGP into EIGRP and 412300
for network 128.102.1.0 when it is redistributed from BGP into EIGRP
(basically making the entire BGP cloud look like a private line)?
