I don't think so -- but you can achieve a similar effect with some
forethought. It is possible to tell Emacs to keep the customizations
in a separate file (not in the standard init file) by setting the
variable "custom-file".

You have to "bootstrap" this thing by including something in your
init file along the lines of

  (setq custom-file "~/.emacs-custom.el")
  (load custom-file)

(cf. the variable's documentation for "custom-file").
