No.  RefTeX might be able to give that documentation, but there is
currently no code in AUCTeX to make use of it.  For DVI, Source
Specials will mostly fill that gap, but for PDF it definitely would be
an advantage.  It might also be nice if one could make the previewer
follow the action in a C-c = buffer from RefTeX.

Maybe we should put this on the TODO list.  Short of somebody wanting
to work actively on this, it might take quite a long time before
something like this appears.
