There's not currently. Those are arguments 3 and 4 to do_init(). In
sftp.c they're:
conn = do_init(in, out, copy_buffer_len, num_requests, limit_kbps);
but in scp.c they're hard coded as:
return do_init(*reminp, *remoutp, 32768, 64, limit_kbps);

That would probably be messy. Right now -o options are handled by
ssh's config file parser and scp/sftp have no knowledge of any of
that, they just pass -o options through to ssh. You'd probably have
to add a dependency on readconf.c, and you'd end up with two classes
of config keywords that work differently. That would likely be a
source of confusion ("Why can't I set SFTPBufferSize in
~/.ssh/config?").
scp's -B -r and -R are all taken. -s and -S (for "sftp thing") are
also taken. -b is available, as is -n/-N ("number of requests").

Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
