In theory yes, but I don't know how to make safe sandboxes in other
languages.  ice-9 sandbox relies on the Scheme characteristic that the
only capabilities granted to a program are those that are in scope.
Other languages often have ambient capabilities -- like Bash for example
where there's no way to not provide the pipe ("|") operator.  I think
adding other languages should be an exercise for the reader :)
