Yes. Previously (version <=0.9.86) KDiff3 could do this.
But since KDiff3 supports several encodings (e.g UTF-8, Unicode etc.)  - which 
was very often asked for - this is not possible any more.
The reason is, that the codecs (within Qt) throw out the "unnecessary" line 
ending characters.

I already investigated methods to reinsert them again after converting to 
unicode, but this is not trivial indeed.

Sorry about that.
