No.  A transfer packet field is used for that.  The variable used to store it is dependent on which customizations are installed for the most part.  In stock CRE installs which store it, the value is stored in a varchar(32) field in the database which will definitely handle the new value.

It's my understanding this variable is used to transmit the transaction back to the software from authorize.net to the source?

As far as I can tell the x_trans_id is not stored any where in the cart . There is some exception for some custom programing. 

For custom programing the most common is to store the order comments field

I have not looked at any ther possible contributions to see if they use this or not

Early October, Authorize.net will increase the x_trans_id in their API communications. This forum post will discuss how it will affect those who run a cre loaded shopping cart online.
