No not really, but it does check for a couple of the more common trojans. The last Developer seed of Snow Leopard Snow 10a421A and what we expect Apple to release on Friday contains a file XProtect.plist that checks for possible trojans.

/System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources/XProtect.plist

It contains five signatures for the two most active trojans, OSX.RSPlug that changes DNS settings and OSX.Iservice the one bundled with the pirated versions of iWork.
