Not currently.

You could probably try to implement it.  One way might be to replace the
use of GMP with a custom wide-int implementation; or with (assuming
IIRC) the slower single-header GMP implementation.  Not sure about MPFR.

Probably use of wide-int in gdb is just going to grow due to 128-bit
ints becoming more common.
