No, I've never seen one that does. However that does not mean it's not possible; it only means nobody has done it yet. And let's not analogize too liberally; no "dirt" is actually being removed, so the term "cleaning" is not particularly accurate. Sometimes when apps are uninstalled they will leave data in the registry. This is the stuff deleted by registry "cleaners". However, aside from making the registry larger, since no more apps ever call this data, it does no harm at all just sitting there.
Really, it was a big problem back in Win95 when the registry was new and no programmers really knew how to deal with it. But by Win7 I like to think a lot of that is behind us.
