The Windows Phone Toolkit is currently (26th of April, 2014) only supporting Silverlight 8.0 / 8.1 applications.

If you wish to re-use components, you would need to download the source from CodePlex and port the individual components to a Windows Runtime library project. However, this might require a (very) large portion of work.
