No. KMail currently doesn't notice new messages that are added directly 
to its folders. It might even be confused by this and this might cause 
undesired results.

The way to do this is to let KMail fetch the mail from the local mail 
spool. You should probably read what the FAQ (which is part of the 
KMail Handbook) says about procmail and KMail if you want to prefilter 
your mail with procmail.
