Dave (and everyone else): I'll chime in here, but Joe is certainly welcome to provide more details if he would like. The short answer is yes, iListen has been able to do that since version 1.1, although the procedure is just a bit different from ViaVoice. With iListen there is no need to repeat any sound - you just say the sound (or nonsense word) when you are dictating, and you teach it to iListen during the Correction process.
