No. But there is a trick for this if you play with the spam filter.

Go to admin -> privacy -> spam page and put following in spam filter rule 1:
               to:.*your-list-name
and set this to Accept. Then, click Add new item (after this one)
and put
               to:.*
and set this to Reject or Discard.
Do not forget to click [Submit Your Changes].

I've not fully tested but this should work. You can first set the second 
rule to Hold and check the effect.

Cheers,
