yes and no. A subset of RDFa is usable with GRDDL.

The full power of [RDFa][1] is only possible *for now* in XHTML 2.0.

     For example, Litteral properties
     [[[
     <h1>Photo Album #12345: <span property="dc:title">Vacation in
the South of France</span></h1>
     <h2>created by <span property="dc:creator">Mark Birbeck</span></h2>
     ]]] -- RDFa Primer 1.0

     The attribute property is only available in XHTML 2.0, not XHTML
1.* family.

     *BUT*
     The profile attribute is not part anymore of the [XHTML 2.0 list
of attributes][2].

     *AND*
     GRDDL requests to have a profile attribute in the head.

     [[[
     A reference to http://www.w3.org/2003/g/data-view
     from the profile attribute (c.f. section 7.4.4.3
     Meta data profiles of [HTML4]) of an XHTML document[XHTML]
     indicates that links of type transformation relate
     the document to transformations that preserve
     its meaning.]]]

Summary: (As it is defined now)


GRDDL can be used now and only with        XHTML 1.0, XHTML 1.1
And only a subset of RDFa can be used with XHTML 1.0, XHTML 1.1
And GRDDL is NOT usable on                 XHTML 2.0


The issue has been raised in HTML WG
     [[[
     It is not possible to define anymore new value
     for "class" in a defined way, because the profile
     attribute has been removed in the benefit of meta.
     ]]] - [property value limited to one value][3]
