yes but not as bash, use tab, if you type in "slee" and press tab, it completes to "sleep"

but just if sleep is the only command that starts with slee, if there would be a command called sleek, completion will not work
and it doesn't show possibilities

same with argument completion


if you use vi mode, "\" works too
