Not yet.

(x[..., np.newaxis, :] @ M @ y[..., :, np.newaxis])[..., 0, 0]

Alternatively, you might prefer something like this (though it won't
yet take advantage of BLAS):

np.einsum("...i,...ij,...j", x, M, y)

Alternatively, there's been some discussion of the possibility of
adding specialized gufuncs for broadcasted vector-vector,
vector-matrix, matrix-vector multiplication, which wouldn't do the
magic vector promotion that dot and @ do.
