It does, if you use \property Voice.Tie \override #'dashed = #1
There are predefined macros, \slurDotted, \slurSolid, \tieDotted
and \tieSolid, for these settings. Unfortunately, the only 
documentation of these and all other macros is in the file where
they are defined, ly/property.ly  (called property-init.ly in 1.5.x).
