  No, and it’s a terrible idea. Duplicating content like that in a WP.com blog will cause Google to assume you’re a spammer, propagating the same material around the web (which you are doing). They will then drastically reduce the search engine rankings of both blogs; Tumblrs have virtually no Googlejuice, but WP blogs have a great deal, and this would destroy that.

  WordPress.com is not an aggregator; it’s a blogging platform. Facebook, Friendfeed, and to a lesser extent Tumblr are aggregators. You can pull FROM a WP.com blog to Tumblr, FB, FF, etc, but not the other way around. Staff have set things up so that content here has to be original to here.
