Very likely not. Why do you want the table in a small font? Do you want all tables in a small font or just some? The short answer is that Texinfo doesn't have many commands for specifying details of formatting, and those that do, like @smallformat, should probably never have been invented in the first place. Which output formats are you interested in? If it is HTML then maybe you could do something with CSS. If it is PDF you are probably stuck. Maybe you could convert to DocBook and do something with a DocBook stylesheet, but I don't know much about that, I'm afraid. Maybe others have suggestions.
