Not really, no. Like a commit, this is an atomic operation: either the
resulting revision has one (commit) or two (merge) parents. So you can
only defer the merge completely. That works pretty well and may be
reasonable. For long lived diverges, I usually give one of the branches
a specific name.

Well, you can always commit the file including these markers. However,
they have no special meaning for monotone and things might get messy
with further merges on that same file.
