no, unfortunately not. This is selected per platform in 
sound/soc/sof/intel/Kconfig. CONFIG_SND_SOC_SOF_INTEL_PCI is close, but 
there is at least one platform that does not use SND_INTEL_DSP_CONFIG.

Indeed currently all the ids are Intel ones (and with exception of old 
Merrifield, all use DSP config). But that's just how it is now.

This would certainly be a clean way and allow to remove the Intel-specific 
calls from sof_pci_probe(). As a short-term solution, IS_REACHABLE() 
seems ok as well.
