There is nothing in there right now, but it could be implemented.
Not sure how useful I would find this, though.

A simpler way would be (and this is what I do) this:
Collect stuff with repeating time stamps in one place and make sure the
category is special.

For example, I have

* Habits
   :PROPERTIES:
     :CATEGORY: habit
   :END:
** Habit 1
** Habit 2

* Regular stuff
   :PROPERTIES:
     :CATEGORY: regular
   :END:

** Item 1
** Item 2
