I don't know if something like that's been implemented or not, but I think it's something that should be implemented by the user and probably not be pushed into the core testing suite. Also, I would recommend something like PERL_SKIP_LONG_TESTS. By default, all tests should be run to prevent the user accidentally forget to run some tests. If any tests are skipped, it should be by the explicit instruction by the person running the test lest nasty surprises crop up.
