There is, and the code used to use it to determine whether to activate the 
"Capture packets in monitor mode" checkbox.  ("man pcap_can_set_rfmon", if your 
UN*X has libpcap 1.0.0 or later.  You need to do pcap_create() first.  And, 
yes, I added that because I knew Wireshark would need to use it.)
