No, not yet. This is planned for the next release after 1.0. The problem is that all our input functions, and all the MediaWiki output functions, are restricted to this range. Also, the database layout we currently use must be modified to store more times. When we do it, however, we plan to do it properly: arbitrary dates within the expected lifetime of the universe, precise to seconds, with internationalised input parsing, and some support for imprecision (i.e. "2007" is not necessarily the same as "Jan 1 2007 00:00").
