Yes, you can use the output of a DERI Semantic Web Pipe as an input for a 
Yahoo Pipe, e.g., by telling Semantic Web Pipes to generate JSON, which can 
be processesd by Yahoo Pipes. An example for this is

Danh Le Phuoc (CCed) can give you more detailed answers if required, he is 
the lead developer of Semantic Web Pipes.
