Not currently... Interpret as you will --

checks.c:                               /* TODO - add new service definition 
automatically */
checks.c:                               /* TODO - add new host definition 
automatically */

I also believe this might be something the event broker could do in  
the future.

How would nagios know about them then? My suggestion would be to  
create your own plugin that knows this information and checks them all  
at once. Assign it to a host that always runs the software or a dummy  
host created for this purpose. Alternately, have the service check  
assigned to all possible hosts but exit as OK if the software isn't  
supposed to be running on it at that time.
