No,they cannot. They would have to create a completely new tool to do that. It may be technically possible to create the tool, but don't just take the word of one blogger to accept that it can be done. But it is not as if Apple currently has the ability to crack the phone - the FBI is asking them to CREATE the ability to do so.
