Yes, but not with Squid 3.1.8. See configuration_includes_quoted_values in squid.conf.documented of Squid v3.4 or trunk (r12993 or later). Support for configuration values with spaces is a work-in-progress and v3.4 does not have all the fixes you may need, but it is worth trying. If you use v3.4.0.1, set configuration_includes_quoted_values to on only for the directive(s) that need it because several squid.conf directives in that version cannot handle the new syntax yet.
