It is not, but oft requested. The symbol in the status bar is not necessarily the ?current function?, it is just the first thing matched via some scope selector (optionally passed through some regexps) above the caret.

What you can do is make a command that takes stdin as input and then do something like: SYMBOL=$(head -n$TM_LINE_NUMBER|grep ?function prototype regexp?|tail -n1). Have the command ?insert as snippet? and construct the snippet from the previous.

I am adding an ?expose current symbol? to the to-do, since it seems a lot want this and don?t care that it might not be 100% correct (and whatever hand-roled solution they make is probably even less correct ;) ).
