Nope; same with Clojure 1.0 on ClojureBox:

user> (eval '(throw (InterruptedException.)))
; Evaluation aborted.
user> (class *e)
clojure.lang.Compiler$CompilerException
user> (.getSuperclass (class *e))
java.lang.Exception

For completeness, trying to  catch RuntimeException does not work, but
catching Exception does.
