no, sorry. it was a conscious decision to not add this option when we merged
udev/xorg.conf.d in 1.8.
http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2009-October/002859.html
The main argument is that xorg configuration should be stored in xorg, not
in other projects. When we used HAL we did it that way because we lacked
xorg.conf.d support but it wasn't particularly good idea and we did cop a
lot of flak for it.

for run-time changes you can use xinput, synclient, xsetwacom or other
tools, but persistent storage is in xorg.conf(.d) only.

Cheers,
  Peter
