Yep.  In fact, it was one of the first patches I ever wrote for Asterisk.  :)

Here are the relevant options from voicemail.conf:

; forcename=yes     ; Forces a new user to record their name.  A new user is
                    ; determined by the password being the same as
                    ; the mailbox number.  The default is "no".

; forcegreetings=no ; This is the same as forcename, except for recording
                    ; greetings.  The default is "no".
