Nothing to stop an Employer/Client doing that, they just lose the independence that maybe particularly on bigger projects is probably useful to have those roles as separate.

The Supervisor role is to focus on getting involved with test and inspections and identifying defects, where as the Project Manager does pretty much everything else.
