Not per se, you might try using my patchset at
http://git.localdomain.pl (note for all -- it should be cloneable now
at <git://git.localdomain.pl/nginx.git>) and the -[FEX] operators.
They differ from standard -[fex] ones in that they return true for
existing files with pathinfo attached.

E.g. if $document_root/foo.html exists and the user requests /foo.html/path/info

if (-f $request_filename) {
  # does not match
}

if (-F $request_filename) {
  # matches
}

I didn't modify nginx to actually serve static files with path_info
attached but it sure works for CGI:

if (-X $request_filename) {
  fastcgi_pass <fcgiwrap-listening-socket>;
}

You can get fcgiwrap at the same url above.
