Nope.

Collect for linux (collectl) may give you that information.

Just checked, on a installed system, if you run collectl -sZ you get process information, you can also do the same with the -p (playback) to display saved information.

You can also playback a saved set of data with --top, showing you the top n (5 by default) processes during each interval. If you have a particular timeframe in mind, just use --from and --thru to focus the range.

If you'd like to see more details about memory utilization just use --procopts m to change the format of the output and if process i/o is enabled in your kernel you'll see that as part of the standard display OR specify --procopts i and see more detail I/O counters for each process.
