no it is not, been asked from time to time here. contact you F5 SE and let them know it should be added sooner not later ;)
there are work arounds with external software like: http://www.element-it.com/asp-net-explorer-browser/online-share/web-file-manager.aspx

as far as I heard it had been decided not to port this FP functionality to APM. Maybe due to a lack of business cases with it. Application Tunnel could do it but then it's not web-based and will require usage of client-side components.
ha, no business cases, from what i heard this RFE has the most votes / requests of any APM request, still F5 doesnt do it, why ....?
an app tunnel doesnt work for this, we are talking file share traffic so SMB / CIFS that really doesnt tunnel very well.

You could also share your SMB/CIFS shares on your windows file servers through webdav (IIS) and make that available through your APM.
- tried that once, isnt as easy as i hoped. windows is quite particular about what a webdav server has to accept. and an external webdav server has issues with the apm being i between.

Have you tried adding "net use G: \server\share" commands to your Network Access object? APM will allow you to run commands on the end user's Windows device if using Edge Client with the relevant services installed/deployed.
