Not really. Moreover, as far as I know there really isn't a good story around shipping dependencies in binary format rather than source code (as Maven repositories do by default).
It is fine to assume the availability of source code when you're working on tiny web microservices... and you're only depending on things like Gorilla, or whatever the leading Sinatra-clone is this week. However, a typical "enterprise" project has numerous proprietary dependencies for which the vendor doesn't want to ship source code.
It will be interesting to see whether the Go community eventually adapts to fit enterprise culture, whether enterprise culture adapts to fit Go's model, or whether the two worlds never really come together at all.
