No but - quoting from the feature list - [it] Can run external commands for the currently selected files (tag-editor for example).
You can bind for example:
bind common ^E run your-tag-editor {}
So when you press Ctrl + e in the common context, cmus will open your-tag-editor expanding {} to the currently selected files.

@cYrus, can you suggest any good command line mp3 tag editor? – th1rdey3 – 2014-12-19T18:06:13.673
2@th1rdey3, I ended up using Ex Falso since I couldn't find any suitable command-line alternative. – cYrus – 2014-12-19T19:09:40.707
Do you know if cmus supports Vorbis Comments? – Wuffers – 2010-11-28T21:13:59.480
I don't know and can't try right now but the man says:
For vorbis style tags (for example in ogg vorbis and flac files), the special-name tag is ALBUMARTIST and the mark-as-compilation tag is COMPILATION. Vorbis tags names are case insensitive.– cYrus – 2010-11-28T21:20:16.407
