Unfortunately not. None of the relevant methods allow you to provide a
reason, or modify the message in any way:

http://www.rabbitmq.com/amqp-0-9-1-reference.html#basic.nack
http://www.rabbitmq.com/amqp-0-9-1-reference.html#basic.reject
http://www.rabbitmq.com/amqp-0-9-1-reference.html#basic.recover

The closest approximation to your requirement would be to acknowledge
the message and to republish with a header that describes the reason.
