No, not that I know of.  But you can use the :CATEGORY: property.

    :PROPERTIES:

Well, here it's a bit inconvenient.

I think that should give the desired results, but for deeper structures
always adding a property is really inconvenient.  Once I used properties
quite intensively, but after a while I switched to using tags and
categories only for distinguishing private from work related things (and
there the categories are the org file names).
