The short answer is no; as it stands now, the built in stuff for log
shipping via wal_archiving is all designed around the binary file
formats and the features and limitations that come with that.

That said, one could in theory use something like logical replication
and wal2json to create "logical log files" and then ship those files
to remote systems which then decode and apply them. To the degree that
qualifies as log shipping to you, that is certainly one possible way
to do something similar to what you are asking.
