Not at this point. If the user filter in the kernel allowed type to be used,
you might stand a chance. But then there is no way to filter on cron being
the source in the kernel.
User space originating audit events are sent as a string to the kernel. The
kernel does not parse strings and won't match against it.

in man auditctl you talk about the "exclude" list. Do you know if this
maps to list number 0x05 ? Anyway, assuming so, I don't see a reason
right off hand we couldn't pass the userspace audit messages through the
exclude filter list (In kernel it's called the "type" filter list.
