If you're referring to the internally-assigned document id, I don't think there is a way. Assuming you're trying to assign one yourself or some such.

Why do you care? What problem are you trying to solve? One common suggestion is to create your own field (as Patrick suggests) that contains your own unique ID. Using TermEnum/TermDocs will give you efficient ways of going from your unique ID to a docID...
