Yes.  You can do this by adding the line

#define RTSP_ALLOW_CLIENT_DESTINATION_SETTING 1

to the start of "RTSPServer.cpp".  This will 
enable the code that lets the server handle 
"destination=" parameter in the "Transport:" 
header of the client's RTSP "SETUP" command. 
(Note that this has the potential for a 
denial-of-service attack, which is why this code 
is disabled by default.  You should use it only 
if you trust all of your potential clients.)

To use this, you would need a RTSP client that 
sets the "destination=" parameter in the 
"Transport:" header of its RTSP "SETUP" command 
(note that our RTSP client does not do this).
