No, but you can do it quickly from your entries page.
And considering games sometimes get reported as owned on free weekends if you tried them out before syncing, people wouldn't want to be thrown out of giveaways of a game they merely tried out but don't own.

I do wish it worked like that, but there's one caveat: free weekend games can erroneously be recognized as "owned" when you don't actually own them.
(ninja'd!)
Win-check-receive-and-auto-withdraw is another thing I wish happened. Maybe that'll be in SGv2.

This is something that happens to me a lot on Steamgifts:
"Oh, wow, a giveaway for a game I want! Imma enter it. And another! And another, and anoth-- wait a minute." (Searches and finds where the game is bundled / ultra cheap, buys it.)
At that point I have to manually withdraw from a bunch of giveaways. And often I don't notice or forget that I entered a giveaway for a game I just acquired in a bundle, since bundled games tend to get given away a lot. So would it be possible to make it so the system automatically withdraws you from any giveaways for newly-owned games when you hit 'synchronize?'
Or, alternatively, make the system do a final check to see if you currently own the game when you win (in SG's database, not the Steam one; I know checking Steam would be harder), and auto-reroll if you do? This would result in you losing your points, but points aren't a big deal, and someone accidentally winning a game they already own because they purchased a bundle with it or somesuch and forgot or overlooked a giveaway for it that they'd recently entered is an inconvenience for everyone involved.
