Why do you think so? I'm looking at
http://download.intel.com/products/processor/manual/253668.pdf and I
can't see it.
I'm saying so because even if there is no provided API to do so, if you
work at a low level (requires messing with the memory management also)
there must be a way to achieve it. Also a non-intrusive but naive way is
also to perform repeated prefetching so that you keep the lines at the
top of the LRU.
