Question about Monitor

Hello, is it possible to synthesize the "monitors" on the altera fpgas'. There are Monitor IPs such as Avalon MM Monitor. Can I synthesize such "Monitors"?

I think I just did that. This is what I did: I created a variation of PCI [actually no/very little variation] using Megafunction Wizard. I got a verilog file for that IP that contained variations [since I did not do any variations, I got a .v for that IP] and then I included that file in the component editor. Then the component editor generated the _hw.tcl file. Is this technique alright?

I dont know why Qsys is allowing this custom component[nothing but PCI] but not the actual PCI IP from Quartus 9.1 sp1.
