Not in this case. The PI font selector appears to be a Combo-box Menu and it only shows 5 lines on a Mac too.

On Mac:
An Option Menu, Pulldown Menu and Popup Menu all show a list as long as the screen real estate allows, but a Combo-box Menu only displays the number of lines set in the PI menuLines property.

On further investigation, type this line of code into the message box and it allows you to set your desired number of lines to display (25 in this example):

   set the menuLines of btn 1 of group 1 of cd 1 of stack "com.livecode.pi.font" to “25”

Just bear in mind that next time you launch LC it will revert back to 5 lines.
