Not unless you're willing to sacrifice infinity focus. According to
http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/mounts.htm
the mount register (flange-to-fil distance) of the EOS cameras is 44mm, LTM
register is 28.8mm, and Leica M is 27.8 or 27.95mm. I'm not sure why this web
page list both numbers of Leica M but either way it's considerably shorter than
EOS.
There are visoflex to EOS adapters at www.cameraquest.com
