Sort of. It's not possible right now though.

Chunk boundaries are not signaled to the application, Node simply
emits the data as it comes in over the TCP stream. The HTTP parser
however knows the chunk length. Theoretically that could be exposed
and then you can build something on top of that.

If you open an issue in the bug tracker and present a compelling use
case, we can look into it.
