It's been done, I guess, but Zencart isn't really designed to be a backend cart script for an existing website. It works best when it's the whole site.

As stevesh pointed out, ZenCart is not designed to be used in pieces as a backend for your non-ZenCart pages...
There are other cart scripts that will allow "BuyNow" button links
I would not recommend them as they have security issues and this is one of the reasons ZenCart does not do things this way
