Can I import/use a vsix file in SharpDevelop?

I have a project template in the form of a vsix extension for Visual Studio which I would like to use to start a new project.

My first intention was to use Visual Studio Community 2015 but the install process is blocked by my company's firewall. The IT guys in charge are very slow at dealing with this sort of queries so I decided to try SharpDevelop.

I haven't been able to find anything about importing/converting a vsix extension to something useable in SharpDevelop.

The extension I am trying to use should consist only of a few templates and a list of libraries.

Could I somehow import/use this template in SharpDevelop?

You can rename the .VSIX extension to .ZIP and use any zip browser (including the Windows File Explorer) to browse its contents.
