No. The archiver has intimate knowledge of message-ids because they are
used in message threading so it knows when a message has a duplicate
message-id. Note that it doesn't actually ignore the duplicate. It
creates an nnnnnn.html archive file containing the message and it adds
it to the cumulative .mbox file and (I think, I haven't checked) the
periodic .txt file; it just doesn't link to it from any of the index
files.

It would be possible to implement a per-list database of processed
message-ids with a custom handler very early in the pipeline, and
discard duplicates there. See <http://wiki.list.org/x/l4A9>.
