Not directly. You could hack up a script to generate a netstat column; 
something like

    #!/bin/sh

    cd $BBVAR/rrd
    for H in */netstat.rrd
    do
       HOSTNAME=`echo $H | cut -d/ -f1`
       $BB $BBDISP "status+25h $HOSTNAME.netstat green
       
       <a href=\"$CGIBINURL/bb-hostsvc.sh?CLIENT=$HOSTNAME&section=netstat\">Current data</a>
       "
    done

    exit 0

and run this as a server-side extension from hobbitlaunch.cfg
once a day (set "INTERVAL 24h"). It should pick up the netstat graph
automatically, since the column- and graph-names match.

The link inside the status message is for easy access to the current
data.
 
A vmstat column can be done in the same way.
