No; screen can't wander around the scrollback buffer without entering copy
mode.
You might be able to get some use out of some keybindings I put together
a while back, though:
bindkey "^[[5;2~" eval "copy" "stuff ^u"
bindkey -m "^[[5;2~" stuff ^u
bindkey -m "^[[6;2~" stuff ^d
Those cause Shift-PgUp to enter copy mode and go back a screen, just like
in xterm. (I also had to unbind the keys in xterm so screen could see
them.) Subsequent Shift-PgUp presses just go back a screen, while
Shift-PgDn goes down a screen for consistency. You still have to hit
Escape (or whatever) to exit copy mode, but it makes it easier to enter it.
