Not that I'm aware of.

You mean like:
rsync -v --progress -a -x -e ssh root@${1}:/ ${DEST}
Where ${1} is the IP of the remote host and ${DEST} is the destination
on the local host for the rysnc to be stored. The above line is part of
a script i use to backup my Zaurus. The above is running rsync on the
host at ${1} for the root filesystem "/" through an ssh connection.
If however, you would like to route through ${1} and actual reach an
internal host, that too should be possible by setting up an SSH port
forward:
ssh -C ${1} -L${lport}:${rhost}:${rport}
The above will create a connection to the host at ${1} and attempt to
establish a forwarding of ${lport} on the the local host to ${rport} on
${rhost} via the connection to ${1}. Once this connection has been made
you simply point rsync to your local host's ${lport} and the request
would be forwarded through ${1} and on to ${rport} at {$rhost}.
