Unfortunately, no.
L4, unlike QNX, is so minimal that you have to put another OS on top of it to do much. L4-Linux has been around almost since L4. There's not much point in it unless you have something else running on the same hardware which needs to be isolated. If all you have is one Linux instance, you haven't gained anything.
Putting some container system on top of L4 might be useful.
