As described here:

It's an interesting concept but this kind of technique is deeply made for video game and would not work well with raytracing (for example, at the end of the paper, it explain "how integrate characters" in a such "indirect illumination baked" environment).

I'm sure it would be possible to write a shader to support this but it's wouldn't be so easy.
