If you mean via print() or autoprinting, no.
I am not sure why you would want to do this, but it seems that using
format() and then gsub should work.  For example

library(MASS)
fh <- format(hills)
fh[] <- lapply(fh, function(x) gsub(" ", "0", as.character(x)))
fh
                 dist climb    time
Greenmantle      02.5  0650 016.083
Carnethy         06.0  2500 048.350
Craig Dunain     06.0  0900 033.650
Ben Rha          07.5  0800 045.600
Ben Lomond       08.0  3070 062.267
...
