Yes and no. The following will give you what you want in one pass. But it will not have preceding zeros so may not sort right beyond 9 books in a series.

{author_sort}/{series} {series_index:>2s} - {title} - {authors}

If the preceding zeros are critical to you then you need to make two passes and manually select all books in a series for pass one.

{author_sort}/{series} {series_index:0>2s} - {title} - {authors}

Then select all books without a series for pass two.

{author_sort}/{title} - {authors}
