No.

Pd has some objects that deal with logical time and scheduling events 
([delay], [metro], [qlist], [pipe]).  But mostly they enqueue only 1 
future event at a time into Pd's event list, e.g. [metro] adds the next 
event only when the previous event fires (which only happens when Pd's 
scheduler has advanced logical time far enough, computing other message 
chains and maybe dsp in between).

If you need to make a list of "all" events, you have to do that 
yourself, perhaps with [timer] and [textfile].
