Why yes, there is. Within the end execution mode of your custom tag, set
ThisTag.GeneratedContent equal to an empty string after doing what you want
to do. In the example below, cf_pageformat outputs its contents in
uppercase:
<!--- cf_pageformat --->
<cfif ThisTag.ExecutionMode is "END">
<cfoutput>#UCase(ThisTag.GeneratedContent)#</cfoutput>
<cfset ThisTag.GeneratedContent = "">
</cfif>
