No. BlueGriffon is based on a standards-conformant parser and
serializer... Your current best option is to copy/paste either
the source from source view or select from the Wysiwyg and use
the relevant context menu.

I use some of the HTML I produce with BG as snippets just like you do.  What I've done is allow BG to keep the full HTML file which I save (and keep under version control).  When I want to put the snipped into the little field of my store database I select the text in WYSIWYG mode and choose "Copy selected HTML markup" (which is the context menu item Daniel mentioned), then I simply paste into the destination and done.

You can also keep multiple snippets in a single file.  I use a <HR> to separate them, but you can use anything you like to distinguish different areas.  You can also link in a CSS that your overall page would be using for format preview, etc.

Hope this helps.
