Nope. But you could use the custom bond definitions to restrain hydrogen
bonds. The syntax is explained in the phenix.refine documentation;
an example is below.
The main trouble is that we don't have an automatic tool to generate
the bond restraints for you. Maybe others have suggestions how to
use external programs?

refinement.geometry_restraints.edits {
bond {
action = *add delete change
atom_selection_1 = "chain G and resname ASP and resid 20 and name N"
atom_selection_2 = "chain G and resname GLY and resid 33 and name O"
symmetry_operation = None
distance_ideal = 2.8
sigma = 0.1
slack = 0.3
}
bond {
action = *add delete change
atom_selection_1 = "chain G and resname GLY and resid 33 and name N"
atom_selection_2 = "chain G and resname SER and resid 21 and name O"
symmetry_operation = None
distance_ideal = 2.8
sigma = 0.1
slack = 0.4
}
}
