Giving the AI control of a Player's unit

[bane_]

Title says all.
Is it possible to make the AI command a single unit from the player without changing ownership?

No.

But you could use Lua to make the player's unit look like an AI was controlling it

function OnPlayerDoTurn(iPlayer)
    local pPlayer = Players[iPlayer]

    if (pPlayer:IsHuman()) then
        local pUnit = FindAIesqueUnit(pPlayer)

        ActBrainDead(pUnit)
    end
end
GameEvents.PlayerDoTurn.Add(OnPlayerDoTurn)

"ActBrainDead"

Ok, thanks.
I'll see how I'll simulate that.
