Nope it doesn't because Amazon doesn't support it on the server side. 
Either the upload succeeds completely or fails completely. From 
developers guide:
""" Amazon S3 never stores partial objects: if you receive a successful 
response, then you can be confident that the entire object was stored. 
[...] If an object already exists in a bucket, the new object will 
overwrite it because Amazon S3 stores the last write request. """

For downloads it is possible, not yet supported by s3cmd though.
