Sure there is:

(defvar hex-display-table-prefix "\\")
(defvar hex-display-table-suffix nil)

(defvar hex-display-table
   (let ((table (make-display-table))
	(char ?\x00))
     (while (<= char ?\xFF)
       (unless (equal char ?\n)
	(aset table char (vconcat hex-display-table-prefix
				  (format "%02X" char)
				  hex-display-table-suffix)))
       (setq char (1+ char)))
     table))

(setq buffer-display-table hex-display-table)
