Hello Andrew,
No, the Brake Buddy Classic 3 Portable Flat Tow Brake System - Preset # HM39494 cannot be converted in any way. That includes to an on-demand/proportional type of braking system.
Instead, you'll need to upgrade to a proportional braking system, and for a portable on like the Brake Buddy you'll need the Blue Ox Patriot Portable Flat Tow Brake System - Proportional # BLU37TR.
