Yes and / or no.

Yes in that there are things like CleanFeed that can be configured to 
reject typical binary encoding methods (UUCP & MIME being most predominant).

No in that it is possible to exclude groups that have (some variant of) 
".bin." in their name.

It is possible to use a combination of either of the above techniques.
