If you mean to avoid that TM asks you this after pressing 'Install  
Bundle(s)' then the answer is no. The background is that GetBundles  
uses the same way to install/update an installed bundle as TM by  
itself (like if you downloaded a foo.tmbundle and double-click at that  
file in the Finder). This is the safest way to make sure that TM  
installs/updates a bundle correctly.
