[Purdue-pm] Perl 6 regex question

The following match regex works as expected
$s ~~ m/
(abc) # match and capture as $0
(def) # match and capture as $1
.+? # match one or more characters
$1 # match previously captured $1
$0 # match previously captured $0
/
I don't know if the following can be done with
% p6 --version

I'd like to change the regex to do the following.
Instead of (abc) I'd like to have $a to be 'abc'
and use $a instead of 'abc'.
Instead of $1 I'd like to have it match $1 but
with the characters in reverse order.
Any hints?
