No it can't. There's a difference between not listening on the interface at
all, and filtering it out by allowing them to connect to the port first and
only later saying `I don't like the look of your IP#'.
If nothing else, you *should* use rlinetd or xinetd or similar to control
the binding *as well as* tightening down hosts.{allow,deny}.
