Not, as far as I know. VDE works at level 2, and has no idea about IP 
addressing.

Actually, VDE does not even provide bridging support: that has to be provided 
by the operating system. VDE just builds a virtual switch, which can be 
attached to other VDE switches (local or remote) using “virtual plugs”. One of 
those plugs (vde_plug2tap) links the virtual switch to a TAP interface, and 
that interface has to be managed by the host operating system, either bridging 
it with real, physical interfaces, or doing IP forwarding.
