They did build entrances on the north side of Eglinton outside of the Allen ramps, which would allow this, including pedestrians who want to walk through.
I've tried to figure out how those new entrances will connect to the Eglinton West Line 1 platforms. On the northbound platform you can currently see a closed off tunnel entrance which I assume will connect to the line 5 station and those surface exits eventually.

I'm not sure how you'd get to the southound platform. I guess up and back down again. That's a pain. It would have been nice to have the tunnel bring people to the mezzanine level that has staircases to both NB and SB platforms, but I think you'd run into accessibility issues.

The design of the lower concourse level is symmetrical. There's closed off walkway entrance in the same place on the Southbound Line 1 platform as on the Northbound Line 1 platform.
