No, nor would this be desirable.  It's important to preserve the ability
to put multiple consecutive spaces in a code span.

IN your example, the spaces are clearly indentation.  But since markdown
doesn't require the list content to be indented, it's hard for the
program to tell.

Best approach would be to set up emacs so that it doesn't break code
spans when wrapping.  (Maybe something for pandoc-mode if it doesn't
already work this way?)
