I'm pretty sure they're not. You could do this, though, with pread(); eg,

  buf = pread(cmd:"nessusd", argv:make_list("nessusd", "-s"));
  if ("nasl_no_signature_check = yes" >< buf) {
    security_note("nasl_no_signature_checks is enabled!");
  }

But then you'd either need to sign it using the nessus.org private key
or enable the parameter. :-)
