No. Squid is HTTP/1.0 Expect does not exist in that protocol.

Write/Use software that knows how to handle Expect response errors properly.

When receiving 417 it should be re-trying the POST without the expect
header, or the delays Expect adds to the system.

Squid other than 2.7 will not produce this error. They will just die in
unexpected ways if the 100-continue your software asked for actually
comes back.
