No, a mia-query contains private information, stuff like: "started a new job promised work again in his/her packages soon". It is not exaclty the same that tell you whether this maintainer is already being tracked. Another option is sent a mail to mia AT qa.debian.org stating why you think this maintainer is MIA, and the mia team will track if needed.
