No, it is currently not possible to save the folding state of a tree.
Using properties would, in my opinion be too heavy, I am not sure if
I would like to have a property change each time I change the visibility
of some part.

Maybe you can write a add-on which in some way allows to save the
folding state, I don't have a good idea how to do this.
