Nope. At least, not as easily as you seem to imply. Keeping everything in memory is an enormously simplifying design choice. Spilling data to disk would require beanstalkd to effectively become a database (and probably to become slower, too). There are plenty of databases out there that do roughly this, even some that pretend to be queueing systems.
