`man dot-qmail` and `man qmail-command`. Please do RTFM next time before
posting a question to the list.

Yes with some modifications to qmail-queue, qmail-send, qmail-lspawn,
qmail-rspawn. You can use indimail - http://www.indimail.org which adds a
control file called 'envheaders' to qmail-queue. envheaders can be used
along with Russ Nelson's QQEH (qmail-queue Extra Header) to pass any
environment variable to the queue and which can be picked up by qmail-lspawn
and qmail-rspawn (and hence available in qmail-remote, qmail-local).

qmail-lspawn, qmail-rspawn are not children of qmail-queue and hence they
will not share the environment variables available to qmail-queue.

The only way I know of to accomplish such a feat without patching is
using something like:
