No, but a StyleRef field will pick up a character style. You could create a
character style (which need not be any different from the Default Paragraph
Font) and apply it to the first sentence on the page. You'd have to do this
when editing was complete and you were sure pagination wouldn't change. It
seems rather pointless, though, since it would mean you'd have the same text
twice at the top of the page.
