3.6 / 3.7: no.
the pm3d branch of the develoment version 3.8: yes

If you want to take the risk of a devel version (actually
it's pretty stable) you can get it via cvs from 

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnuplot/
    http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=2055

you've to checkout the pm3d branch:

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.gnuplot.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gnuplot co -r pm3d gnuplot
                                                                             ^^^^^^^

If you've installed it, you can type

    gnuplot> help pm3d
    gnuplot> help palette
    gnuplot> help mouse
