Sure.  And it is.  I'm surprised no one has mentioned this yet.  Just
put "_files" directly into your "completer" zstyle somewhere.  E.g.:

zstyle ':completion:*' completer \
    _oldlist _expand _complete _match _ignored _files _approximate _prefix

Where you place it will determine the precedence taken by file completion
with respect to "repairs" (like partial and approximate matching) done on
the completions suggested by the more context-specific completer selected
by _complete.
