No - they are far too small.  The smallest objects that the largest "amateur" sized telescopes can see are several hundred meters across.  Even the Hubble telescope would have trouble seeing anything below about 300-400 meters on the Moon.

See here for the LROC zoomify version (its at the bottom of the linked page), it has an insane amount of detail:
