Not without a lot of work. Open-source Swift is available for Linux but the Swift/ObjC/Cocoa bridge is not. That would break your OS X screensaver assuming that it draws anything.
Somebody would have to do something like port the Swift-ObjC bridging machinery to the GNU Objective-C runtime and update the GNUstep SDK to work with the Swift-ObjC importer.
