Not afaik, but this works :

# service rsyslog stop
# rpm -e --nodeps rsyslog
# yum install syslog-ng
# chkconfig syslog-ng on
# service syslog-ng start

This depends on whether syslog-ng is in your yum repo list ; in the case 
of any Fedora in the past 4 years (at least) you're good to go, and in 
the case of CentOS, you just need to add RPMForge (i think).
