Considering the reality that we don't have SQL parser in the client for tools usage, and that generic tools (ISQL and like) will be the clients for the feature, no, they can't issue a server call to decode each column its going to display.
They can. Nothing prevent them from getting full list of "TZ ID, TZ name" list from server at the first need and cache it for "decoding of each column". As for isql, it can use hardcoded TIME_ZONE_LIST if you have no mood to code server request.
