I don't believe so.  There may be some plugin or other that can
accomplish this, though.

That looks like it should be possible through the Title Format option
in Settings > Interface > Title Format.  The info box says:

So you could use EXT and BITRATE.  Note that bitrates for lossless
files always look a little screwy, as they represent the streaming
bitrate according to how much the file was compressed (which will vary)
and not the native bitrate of, for example, 1.4 Mbps for CD content.
