I very much doubt it. There are hard physics limitations at play. Nasa's Deep Space Network [0] is the only system on Earth capable of communicating with the Voyager probes. If an attacker managed to secretly construct a 70-meter dish and reverse-engineer a poorly-documented 50 year old protocol I would only be impressed.
