No. Sorry. Adding such functionality (already available via other tools) would make cut's code more complex and less maintainable. If you want to reorder the fields, use gawk, perl, sed, etc. or a combination of cut and paste.
Since I see you're online :-) what about the patch to add cut -v (so that `cut -vf1' would output all fields but the first) that I had sent you quite a long time ago?
