AFAICT answer is No.

The barcode generator has this in its header

% Barcode Writer in Pure PostScript - Version 2009-03-06
% http://www.terryburton.co.uk/barcodewriter/

See  also http://freshmeat.net/projects/postscriptbarcode

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/elaphe/ is a binding which may assist in
generating the codes from with a scribus script, I don't know as I
have never tried
