No, because it is not part of the IMAP protocol.

Right, not part of the protocol, so there would be no option for that. You can either manually drag-N-drop deleted mail, before you purge it, to a new folder you create on the server, called Trash, or whatever. Or... perhaps you can set up a filter to move/copy deleted mail to your new Trash folder, etc... this might work.
Which leads me to ask/comment/point out, a bit off topic perhaps ... if you do take the filter path, and are checking mail on different machines, perhaps with different applications and operating systems ... how do you sychronize your filters? I believe there's not a centralized universal way of filtering messages. Do you have create them on each app you use?
