It is not possible in QCad.
There are several other operations which are also not possible with splines or 
ellipses in QCad, including trimming to them. QCad appears to be unable to 
determine the exact coordinates for arbitrary points on these entities. You 
can snap to an endpoint or a midpoint of an ellipse, but you can not trim to 
an arbitrary intersection with an ellipse or a spline. This same limitation 
affects hatching, since hatching requires trimming.
