Not AFAIK, but you can declare yours constants like vars and after the begin put initiate all of them. Anything like this:

Create Procedure Blablabla...
Declare MyFakeConstantName1 INTEGER; -- Constant
Declare MyFakeConstantName2 INTEGER; -- Constant
....
begin
--Constants Initialization
MyFakeConstantName1 = 3;
MyFakeConstantName2 = 33;
MyFakeConstantName3 = 333;

--Code...
...
