Comment (by imath):

 No I can't because this is not the purpose of the feature, only the WP
 display name is synced with the default 'Name' field used by BuddyPress.

 If you want to sync first and last or any custom contact methods, you can
 use the new [https://bpdevel.wordpress.com/2021/03/24/wordpress-xprofile-
 field-types/ WordPress xProfile Fields we introduced in 8.0.0]. These
 fields are not synced, their value are directly retrieved form/and updated
 into WordPress users/usermeta db tables.

 BTW, We'll need to rethink this sync feature for the display name now we
 introduced WP xProfile fields.
