No. You'll have to make your own modified version if you want to do this. As written, selecting a directory from the listbox is interpreted as wanting to look inside that directory, and closing the dialog without selecting anything is interpreted as cancelling it, so you can't use it to choose the working directory unless you change these behaviours.
