You need to be root to add a file to the basl completions directory, so not really.

There is no the bash completion directory; there is a default one which happens to be system wide and only root writable (as should be the case in a combination of such circumstances).

Fish allows for custom ones in ~/.config/fish and there is zero reason you cannot install custom ones in ~/.bashrc or user writable (on macOS) /usr/local
