No there is not. This is a security feature of Browsers not something
Squid can workaround.

CONNECT is a request to open a TCP connection. Delivering an HTTP page,
or even a URL redirect in response to a TCP connection request is
completely the wrong type of result.

Like asking someone to open a door because you have a load of things
needing to go through it - and they instead throw a basket of apples at
you. Not want you expected, and more harm than good.
