Nope, it's not that sophisticated.
You might consider mounting it in a large metal tray that would catch the
coolant. If you ever cut much steel with it, it can be well worth the
trouble in blade life. But beware of some cutting oils, they can cause the
blade to keep jumping off the cheaper saws. But a water based might do the
trick.
Otherwise, you might try the rotary brush deal. I have seen it used a lot on
verticals for cutting aluminum with just wax.
