Yes and no. I don't think it's possible to do it inside calibre. I do those searches inside the database with SQLiteSpy using SQL queries, but it's not very convenient unless you just want to identify one or two books.

If you really need to do this for a lot of books, you could try adding a keyword to the comments using SQL and one of the techniques in this thread. Then you'd search for your keyword inside calibre.
