No.  There are a variety of progressively uglier ways of simulating it
in Python, but the functionality does not exist.  See the FAQ, or search
Google Groups for "conditional expression" for extensive discussion of
the topic (another thread on the subject is still in progress in this
very newsgroup at the moment, even).
