No. Some specs are here: 
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/packages#Lazarus_and_Library_packages

But so far nobody volunteered for the implementation, so installing 
packages dynamically won't be possible "any time soon".

It was easier for Delphi and C++ Builder 
(http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/packages#Lazarus_and_Library_packages) 
and commercially required because they don't offer the source of the 
Delphi IDE.
