I doubt it. BTW, you can get it from:
http://www.dsv.nl/~buytenh/ext2resize/
One issue that comes immediately to mind is the cache. The resizing
would have to be done in kernel space - and this seems like bloat to me.
I don't know enough about the kernel to know how hard this would be to
implement.
