Looks like @suresh kumar is dead right, so this question is settled with "no", but having run into this trouble I wanted to drop some code in here to get around it.

I use Universal Image Loader for URL image loading, and it supports a lot of configuration options for caching and display. Set it up in your Application class with (at time of writing):

    //Create image options.
    DisplayImageOptions options = new DisplayImageOptions.Builder()
        .showImageOnLoading(R.drawable.button_default)
        .cacheInMemory(true)
        .cacheOnDisc(true)
        .build();

    //Create a config with those options.
    ImageLoaderConfiguration config = new ImageLoaderConfiguration.Builder(getApplicationContext())
        .defaultDisplayImageOptions(options)
        .build();

    ImageLoader.getInstance().init(config);

And then use it with Parse where you'd like to load and cache your image:

        ParseImageView itemImage = (ParseImageView) v.findViewById(R.id.iv_item);
        ParseFile photoFile = item.getParseFile("picture");
        if (photoFile != null) {
            //Get singleton instance of ImageLoader
            ImageLoader imageLoader = ImageLoader.getInstance();
            //Load the image from the url into the ImageView.
            imageLoader.displayImage(photoFile.getUrl(), itemImage);
        }

Hope that helps.
