Doesn't appear to be the case in the current git I'm afraid.

http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/coreutils.git/tree/src/cp.c

You could choose to patch cp.c to change:

  x->reflink_mode = REFLINK_NEVER;

to:

  x->reflink_mode = REFLINK_AUTO;

to change the default should you wish to.

All the best,
Chris
