Yes. Here is my gnus-parameters setting:
(setq gnus-parameters '(("nndoc:.*"
(gnus-show-threads nil)
(gnus-article-sort-functions
(list 'gnus-article-sort-by-number)))
("nnrss:.*"
(mm-discouraged-alternatives nil)
(gnus-article-sort-functions
'(gnus-article-sort-by-number))
(gnus-show-threads nil)
(total-expire . t))))
which you can modify to suit your needs.
