No. This is a much-discussed topic that has (many times) ended with the conclusion that it is in wxWidgets' best interests to avoid use of templates.

It would also be undersirable to make wxWidgets dependent on another large library that may have to be downloaded and installed. In addition, use of templates can lead to executable bloat, which is something -wxWidgets 2 is strenuously trying to avoid.
