My guess is "no."
1, The Kindle is an ereader, not a multimedia device.
2, and probably more importantly, any functional MP3 player would allow for the playback of MP3 audibooks...i.e., audio books NOT bought from Audible (which Amazon owns) so Amazon probably feels very little motivation to do this.
Probably the same reason they are not supporting epub books, and that is at least relevant to the device's primary function and important to lots of ereader customers.
