Unfortunately, no. There are a few options (-log_view ?) that you should
set before calling PetscInitialize() (which happens automatically at import
time), otherwise things do not work as expected. To pass things from the
command line and set them before PetscInitialize() the usual idiom is:

import sys, petsc4py
petsc4py.init(sys.argv)
from petsc4py import PETSc
