Because of the design of the plugin, unfortunately no. You could use the Custom Printjob Naming plugin instead.
Perhaps a future version of the GCode Filename Format plugin will change this: https://github.com/rgomezjnr/GcodeFilenameFormat/issues/2
Hey guys just saw this and wanted to add. I added compatibility for OcotoPrint Connection in GFF in version 2.0.0-rc2. Because of the significant changes and unfinished testing I haven't integrated this into a release, but other users have reported that it works for them. This version removes the separate Save Gcode button, and actively updates the job name with the specified format, which will then be used by OctoPrint Connection. @StumbleNOLA I can help you install this version if you would like.
@rgomezjnr That would be great, I am happy to beta test it. I hate having to bounce between the two plugins.
Sorry I didn’t have time to play with this previously.
I am having an issue getting the plugin installed. I assume it is an issue on my end, but I am not sure what I am doing wrong.
I opened Cura, and removed the old GcodeFilenameFormat Then closed Cura Unzipped the files Copied the files into the Cura/plugins folder (Including GcodeFilenameFormat-2.0.0-rc2
But when I reload Cura it doesn’t appear to be there. If I go to Extensions there is nothing there. And if I click on Marketplace - Installed all I have is Octoprint, and a greyed out Gcode… 1.4.1. If I click on the box it checks, and tells me to reload Cura. But on reload nothing happens.
I am pretty sure this is just me not knowing Cura well, but can you let me know what I am doing wrong?

Is it perhaps a good idea to move this discussion to https://github.com/rgomezjnr/GcodeFilenameFormat/issues/2 ?
Yes @fieldOfView, I agree.
@StumbleNOLA please post further questions on this in rgomezjnr/GcodeFilenameFormat#2 .
I suggest first uninstalling the plugin using the Cura Marketplace:
Once that is done, close Cura and verify there is no GcodeFilenameFormat folder in your Cura plugins folder. If there is then delete it.
Then extract and copy the GcodeFilenameFormat folder to the Cura configuration folder. Note there shouldn't be any "-2.0.0-rc2" in the folder name.
You should have the following paths:
cura\4.4\plugins\GcodeFilenameFormat\images
cura\4.4\plugins\GcodeFilenameFormat\test
cura\4.4\plugins\GcodeFilenameFormat\__init__.py
cura\4.4\plugins\GcodeFilenameFormat\Format.qml
cura\4.4\plugins\GcodeFilenameFormat\GcodeFilenameFormat.py
cura\4.4\plugins\GcodeFilenameFormat\Help.qml
cura\4.4\plugins\GcodeFilenameFormat\LICENSE
cura\4.4\plugins\GcodeFilenameFormat\plugin.json
cura\4.4\plugins\GcodeFilenameFormat\README.md
If you are sure the plugins folder is correct, then launch Cura. If it's still not loading the plugin, check the Cura log file in:
cura\4.6\cura.log
If the plugin is loading properly it should report the following:
2020-08-06 21:12:47,282 - INFO - [MainThread] UM.Logger.info [122]: Loaded plugin SimpleView 2020-08-06 21:12:47,312 - INFO - [MainThread] UM.Logger.info [122]: Loaded plugin X3DReader 2020-08-06 21:12:47,352 - INFO - [MainThread] UM.Logger.info [122]: Loaded plugin XmlMaterialProfile 2020-08-06 21:12:47,375 - INFO - [MainThread] UM.Logger.info [122]: Loaded plugin XRayView 2020-08-06 21:12:47,456 - INFO - [MainThread] UM.Logger.info [122]: Loaded plugin GcodeFilenameFormat
If there's an error after it attempts to load GcodeFilenameFormat please paste it in rgomezjnr/GcodeFilenameFormat#2 .
Would it be possible to have OctoPrint Connection use the file format generated by "GFF"? I need GFF to keep my files organized and properly named, but the two don't play together, so I end up not using OPC for anything but one time print files I plan on deleting.
