Not really.
You can use ClassVariables though. Here's an example for Sets:
Object subclass: #MyClass
instanceVariableNames: ''
classVariableNames: 'MyClassVar'
package: 'MyPackage'
MyClass class>>initialize
super initialize.
MyClassVar := Set new.
MyClass>>foo
self bar: MyClassVar
Obviously sets are not as easy to deal with. You cannot mutate empty
arrays/bytearrays, if you concatenate something it creates a new object.
You can add things in sets. So you need to be careful... You can make the
object read-only to avoid issues (MyClassVar beReadOnlyObject).
