Not for squid-2.5.

There is plans on adding Transfer-Encoding support in a later Squid
version, maybe Squid-3.1 but the exact timeplan depends on if anyone
sponsors the development of the feature and sparetime available to
the developers working on transfer encoding support. It is very
likely Transfer-Encoding support will include gzip compression once
added.
