Supposedly, HivelyReplayer is back-wards compatible and supports not only its own tunes (HVL) but also THX/AHX. maep from Nectarine announced they had added support for it on their web platform with a post dated july 25th 2015; "To celebrate 30 years of Amiga World Domination, we rolled out an update of our streaming engine. As of now we support a shitload of new module formats, thanks to libopenmpt. As icing on top, AHX and HVL files are supported as well, courtesy of Hively Replayer." - hence we know it is possible.

These trackers were hugely popular on the Amiga from the mid 90s on, and quite a few tunes exist. Everything Pink ever did for this is just pure gold. :)
