For hiring purposes airlines and other civilian employers account for flight time by aircraft class and category (and sometimes by type).

The FAA definitions are clear, and for professionals usually fall into airplane or rotorcraft categories.

A V-22 is clearly in the powered lift category, and by default that time will not count towards most airline requirements. In the case of helicopters, a few airlines allow some RW time to count towards your total time. But I have never heard of any allowance for PL.

Since PL is clearly it's own category I don't think there is any wiggle room for interpretation. It will not count, unless an employer consciously makes a special allowance for PL time.

You might find somebody in part 91 flying who will accept it, but even they might have insurance issues...without statistical history on PL pilots, insurance companies might not be eager to apply that time to their risk calculations. It's a bit of an unknown at this point.

Personally I think it should count as RW, not FW time for civilian employment purposes. All aircraft pretty work the same in cruise flight, so V-22 cruise experience isn't particularly relevant.

For FW aviation TO, LDG, and SE ops are where the skill comes into play...the V-22 does all of that stuff like a helo, not an airplane.

My guess is that you are going to be looking at civilian helo flying, unless you can get an IP tour of do some civilian flight instruction. But even with 1000 CFI hours, you might come up short on turbine airplane time...most decent airlines require 1000 hours of that.

But I would hire you with that background, it shows you can learn new tricks.
