Yes, but you must build bootblocks yourself.  Look in
sys/boot/${arch}/lib${arch}/comconsole.c for the COMSPEED parameter.

I have boot blocks that boot at 115200 over COM3 in an embedded SBC we 
at Timing Solutions have.  It works great, although we might not ship
the final proudct like this for other reasons.
