No, but VMware supports reverse *debugging*, with gdb.
You run gdb on the host, and debug the guest (either user
process or kernel). When you say "reverse-continue" in gdb,
VMware executes the guest backward until it hits a breakpoint
or watchpoint.

great news about reverse debugging
i.e., a reversible VM (with the reversibility interface being GDB,
definitely a good decision.)
