I guess you mean:

?

As far as I know there is no such thing in Dovecot's deliver. However, 
deliver is easy to understand and probably you find someone to jump in and 
make a patch.

If you do not use Dovecot deliver, check your local MDA.

If you mean that Cyrus stores two identical mails only once physically, 
e.g. when spooling for two users, then no, because Dovecot is not designed 
to only support virtual users, but with real users two users cannot easily 
share the same file.
