Not directly, because it is a build automation tool and not a package manager.

If you have a pkg-config file for Your library, then Qbs can generate a
module on-the-fly. See https://doc.qt.io/qbs/module-providers.html

Another automated and platform-independent library interface would be Conan
or vpgkg. Have you searched for packages on bintray?

If all that is not an option, then you might implement your own download &
install solution. You could potentially abuse Qbs probes for this.
