Probably not in the sense of the standard Google plays in now being very close to natural-language awareness. You can probably garage up a Webcrawler or a Lycos relatively cheaply, but it's going to feel clunky and complicated relative to the queries Google and Bing can support. I keep mentioning "restaurants near me" in this thread because it's absolutely killer that's possible now.
