Technically, yes. Mailman allows the list administrators to change the visibility of the subscribers list.[1]

Practically, there's no need to broaden this visibility, and doing so would make a great many subscribers uncomfortable (including me).

This is not something senders should care about. If a subscriber doesn't want to receive multiple copies of messages, it's their responsibility to adjust their Mailman delivery settings as desired.[2]
