No, you can replace the driver that cgminer uses and use the OEM one but that would most likely break the modified cgminer code. cgminer is a generic mining program that relies on a driver to communicate with a miner. Each kind of miner has a custom driver that is written for it and that driver is (well, was) the 'secret sauce' that the manufacturers do not want released.
One has to assume that you are using non-OEM firmware for various reasons such as tweaking speeds & chip voltages. However if you change cgminer - or the driver - you lose those supposed advantages to the firmware making it a rather pointless excercise.
