Not that I know. Delorme Street Atlas has this feature.

Believe it or not, according to the USPS there is technically no such
thing as a "zip code boundary". True zip code datasets (which the USPS
doesn't sell but they license a third party seller) are point sets. Ie.
collections of addresses.
This results in zipcode "areas" which can (and do) include each other,
overlap, include multiple "areas", etc.


After saying all this :-) MapPoint (the business version of Streets and
Trips) can plot zipcode data. So you could with a bit of fiddling tell
it to draw zipcode boundaries. (eg. tell it to plot 'white' data).
