No, if your project takes more than a few seconds to compile, it WILL annoy committers. I have a pre-commit that validates a Change Request Number in their comment against a database. It is a quick query, but it takes about 15 seconds to do the connect, query, and then disconnect. My committers are annoyed by that short a time.

Are there any tools allowing this? Yes, you could write a script to do this. There might be existing scripts to do this. However, if your project takes more than a few seconds to compile, this will likely annoy committers.
