Not with libpcap-based applications such as Wireshark.  Apple's PacketLogger program can be used to capture Bluetooth traffic to and from the Mac, and Wireshark can read its files, but the interfaces it uses to capture the traffic are not, as far as I know, documented, so they're not easily available to libpcap.
