Possibly, but there's probably some sound engineering reason why it's not done that way.
I would think it's a combination of the hub and and acorn seating arrangement that keeps the lug pulled straight in 'tension', even when the wheel is being torqued by the acceleration (or braking) of the vehicle. Otherwise there might be shearing forces at work, which the lugs are not designed for.
Again, I'm no engineer; I'm just throwing some ideas out there.
