No.

Yeah at least for me worktrees are still quite isolated. Occasionally
I need to peek in a worktree from another one (e.g. if I want to run
tests on current HEAD but do not want to wait for it to finish, I'll
make a new worktree, checking out the same head and run tests there)
but it's really rare. So yeah maybe it's best to stick to current
worktree's HEAD only. At least until someone finds a good case for it.
