I thinks the answer is "no".

Here is a post of someone who tried to do it some years ago
http://www.itdp.de/mplayer-dev-eng/2002-04/msg00001.html

Also I vaguely remember have read about something external to mplayer which 
which needs to be fixed to make mplayer able to switch audio, can't remember 
it very well.

If that Zenslacthing u're talking about allow you to modify it, one solution I 
found is to launch mplayer witch -v option, read the available audio ids (it 
sais 'Found audio stream...' (well, depends on avi/ogm/mkv...)) and then 
restart it with different aid (actual position can be stored too to start it 
on in the same pos where u wanted to change aid)
