No.
Ok, technically, you could do this (inspired by
https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/8066#issuecomment-61136584):
julia> function foo()
bt = backtrace()
lookup = ccall(:jl_lookup_code_address, Any, (Ptr{Void}, Int32),
bt[2], 0)
name = lookup[1]
end
foo (generic function with 1 method)
julia> foo()
:foo
But that is a really, really bad idea. Please don't do that.
