No, ++ is already taken. So is . (dot operator). Maybe # would do, but they're thinking of using it for a bunch of other syntax in the future.

Anyhow, there's no way to change it without breaking backwards compatability :( And just adding a concatenation operator alone would not do because + would still behave in an annoying way unless it was changed to only do math.
