I don't know of any way to do that. I can tell you that in WebKit, the function that usually gets called to resolve URLs (called completeURL if you want to look it up in the source) returns a canonicalized URL.
The same is true in Gecko. The way an nsIURI object is typically constructed is from an nsIURI base (possibly null) and a URL string, and the return value is resolved and canonicalized.
