Yes, this version should be capable of doing this.
It is not enabled by default, though.

The respective properties of the akonadiserverrc configuration file are 
ExternalPayload and SizeThreshold in the [General] Section.
Basically the default is

[General]
ExternalPayload=false
SizeThreshold=4096

Meaning use of external payloads (cached content in files) is disabled (data 
will be transmited through the data connection) and the limit, if it were 
enabled, would be 4096 bytes, meaning smaller data items would still be cached 
in the database.

Unless you are already using Akonadi for huge data items, e.g. mails with 
large attachments, there is probably little to gain other then helping test 
the feature.

Cheers,
Kevin
