Yes, (plus all of the related --*-list commands.) It seems to me that it would require extension of the spamc/spamd protocol and cargo-culting some code from spamassassin to spamd. Looking to provide a more elegant solution to 'strong' feedback than giving scanning-client machines direct access to the reputation DB. For example, the script I have that handles user-identified escaped spam includes this ugly snippet: spamassassin --remove-from-welcomelist < $spam spamc -L spam < $spam spamassassin --add-to-blocklist < $spam This only works because the local spamassassin and remote spamd share access to the same reputation DB.
