Sure!
You can, for example, use Django's views/templates/urls.py (and
perhaps forms and the others rendering-related helpers) while still
using hibernate as the ORM.
You will loose stuff which depends on Django's ORM like the Admin and
Auth (and perhaps Sessions). There are ways to workaround the problem,
but I don't know if this is relevant in your use case. I suspect you
just want a simpler way for your app to interact with HTTP and the
browser and Django is a good solution for that.
