Not at this moment. It requires modifications to the syncing protocol. 
There should be a force flag to disregard the configuration difference. 
Then you would be able to do this:

1) Prevent client queries to server A (change port or disable proto)
2) Resize filters and restart the server A
3) wait until the servers are in sync again (number_buffers times 
rotate_interval)
4) Make server A available to clients
5) do steps 1 to 4 with server B

The force flag is fairly easy to implement. Look examples how to set up 
flags in gross.c, and then check the flag in syncmgr.c. Then, you must 
skip the initial sync (send_filters() function in syncmgr.c).
