No.  You will have to recompile.  If you have a stable kernel and it's
configured then hopefully you saved your .config file in /usr/src/linux
.  When I find a good configuration I copy the file to config-raul or
something like that.  Then I run checkout from
/usr/src/linux/driver/char/speakup.  Update speakup, then run make
mrproper which will clober your .config file.  This is why you want to
have a backup of it.  ONce make mrproper is done copy your backed up
config file to .config and run make oldconfig.  Then make dep; make
bzImage.

HTH.
