Not currently, no. You can of course back up the introducer directory
so that you can quickly switch to another copy of it if there is a failure
of the machine running the introducer.

(Note that the location hints in the introducer furls configured in each
server's tahoe.cfg would need to be changed, unless they use a DNS name
that now points to the host running the new introducer.)
