As of the current beta Version, no.

No idea if he plans to change that. That would require some extensive rewrite of the code methinks. Currently TCP/IP is simultaneous tun based, but the game automagically handles the sending and receiving of game and player files, with a chat function thrown in for good measure. So anything you can't do in a sim turn game, you can't do in TCP/IP, ie. tactical combat.
