Can a Node.js application connect to bluetooth on Android?

Can a Node.js application connect to a bluetooth device on Android? If so, what do you think would be an efficient and stable way to do it?

Thanks

though I was able to build bluetooth connectivity apps using JAVA + ANDROID with the link below
