Yes and no. No, because eQUEST will only let you load INP of PD2 files. Yes, because you should be able to convert your BDL file to an INP file by removing all non-valid INP fields. For example:

 * 586 *  
 * 587 * "South Win (G.S1.E1.W2)" = WINDOW
 * 588 *    GLASS-TYPE       = "Window Type #2 GT"
 * 589 *    X                = 60.7483
 * 590 *    Y                = 3.10833
 * 591 *    HEIGHT           = 5.00333
 * 592 *    WIDTH            = 46.4456
 * 593 *    FRAME-WIDTH      = 0.108333
 * 594 *    FRAME-CONDUCT    = 2.781
 * 595 *    ..

Should be changed to

"South Win (G.S1.E1.W2)" = WINDOW
GLASS-TYPE       = "Window Type #2 GT"
X                = 60.7483
Y                = 3.10833
HEIGHT           = 5.00333
WIDTH            = 46.4456
FRAME-WIDTH      = 0.108333
FRAME-CONDUCT    = 2.781

Tedious manually, much easier with a script.
