You can do it with a local polynomial, it's just not terribly easy.
You have to pick the points at which you want to generate prediction,
perhaps quantiles of x, then -bsample- clusters, do the estimation,
and then -post- or otherwise save the estimates, and finally collect
all results. A similar strategy would work with -pspline- (-findit-
will find that option).
As Nick Cox points out, it's also not clear why you want this. Are you
perhaps contemplating a regression discontinuity estimator?
