Yes and no. How an e-mail gets forwarded is very much client-dependent. I find that with Microsoft products, there isn't any easy way to get it to forward a message and include the full headers. And even if you could, you'd then have to have a way to strip off the outer message and only learn on the attached message. Plus, then you are putting the accuracy of your spam filter in the hands of your users. I have a few select users that I allow to drop their spam in a shared mailbox. I then review the spam and send it to the learner. I send probably 80% or more on, but the rest is misclassified by the user because they don't understand how to get off a mailing list, whether it's their bank or some online store or whatever. In my experience, I can't trust users to know the difference between ham and spam, so there is still the manual review. After the review, I drag the message into another mailbox where it gets sa-learn'ed by cron job and autodeleted eventually.
