SPICE built in primitives in an AMS simulation

I had a quick question. Is it possible to use a SPICE built in primitive like a vcvs or a vccs in an AMS simulation which has verilog A and verilog AMS modules instantiated? When I try to use a VCVS in a testbench with a verilog a and verilog ams instances I get the following error. of cell 'vcvs' is a SPICE built in primitive. It cannot be configured to another view like 'External HDL' via Cadence Hierarchy Editor.
