Not possible. The only MSCP controller DEC did for Unibus was to SDI 
(tha UDA50). The only MSCP to MFM controller DEC did was for Q-bus (the 
RQDX series).

3rd party manufacturers also made MSCP controller for Unibus to SCSI. 
Might be that something more also exist, but I doubt very much you could 
find one to MFM.
