Not at the moment, Shane.

This may change in the future if perchild or metux MPM will be released.
This will allow to have groups of processes/threads running under a given
uid/gid, which may or may not suit your needs (e.g. it probably won't
scale well if you have hundreds of users you want to 'suexec' to).
