Quick answer - no

Longer answer ... not within DBPro itself, although I've managed to get a TPC DLL to multi-thread.

You cant even set the default task priority in DB, even multitasking is limited to the method you sync and 1 external wait command. This isn't really a drawback considering DB was written for games, just show me the graphics card processor and let me hog it!

You could set up a C interrupt routine and pass back parameters using global atoms...
