This currently is not possible unless a specific shader is written to do so. It was one of the additions we were going to make to the vegetation system when we come around to reworking it.

For now you could use a cross quad instead of billboards( camera facing sprites ), only uses a couple more pollies but will still be fast. ;)

Just an idea , you could place them manually and save the tree as a multi preset, this way you could use Skylines camera facing billboards.
