No. That is, not yet. *prompt* is always shell-style evaluated
"as if specified within $''" before it is displayed, but $'' does
not yet support the envisaged \`{...} extension to execute
commands. For now *folder-hook* has to be used, which .. should
satisfy your reported needs? I mean we could introduce
a *mailbox-basename* variable. Ok i did that. Be warned you got
credited.
