If by "recall" you mean stop an outgoing email then not in mailx, but if you have rw access to the /var/spool/mqueue (or similar directory) and are quick, you might be able to delete the spooled email before it is sent.
If by "recall" you mean undelete then the 'pre' command in mailx will put it back in the mail as unread.

nullmailer-queue
nullmailer-queue(8) System Manager's Manual nullmailer-queue(8)
NAME
nullmailer-queue - insert mail messages into the queue
SYNOPSIS
nullmailer-queue
DESCRIPTION
This program reads a formatted mail message from standard input and safely injects it into the outgoing mail queue.
The data sent into standard input is expected to have the following format: one line containing the envelope sender, one or more lines con-
taining the recipients, a single blank line, and then the contents of the message exactly as it is to be transmitted to the destination.
All lines are terminated with a single line-feed character. All addresses must contain a fully-qualified domain name.
RETURN VALUE
Exits 0 if it successfully queues the message. If it failed to queue the message, it exits 1 and prints an error message to stdandard out-
put.
CONTROL FILES
adminaddr
If this file is not empty, all recipients to users at either "localhost" (the literal string) or the canonical host name (from
/etc/mailname) are remapped to this address. This is provided to allow local daemons to be able to send email to "somebody@local-
host" and have it go somewhere sensible instead of being bounced by your relay host.
OTHER FILES
/var/spool/nullmailer/queue
The directory into which the completed messages are moved.
/var/spool/nullmailer/tmp
The directory in which messages are formed temporarily.
/var/spool/nullmailer/trigger
A pipe used to trigger nullmailer-send to immediately start sending the message from the queue.
SEE ALSO
nullmailer-inject(1), nullmailer-send(8)
LIMITATIONS
This program should enforce system-wide configurable message length limits.
