No, that's part of the main KoboTouch driver as of calibre 2.65. It has been asked for occasionally, and something recently made me think of how to do it.

@davidfor, do you think it is feasible to modify the function at this plugin that gets the book status to check if a book is in a specific collection and update another column? I'm not requesting it, but thinking about doing it myself but first, I would like to know if you think it won't be too much overload at the connection.
Is this because of Kobo removing the ratings of sideloaded books? You want to put them into a collection on the device for each rating and then fetch that to calibre library?

There is already a function to get all the collections into a tag-like column. That gets all collections. Adding some sort of selection would probably do what you want. Either a match criteria, or a dialog to select the collections. Then copy the matched or selected collection names to the column.
