Yes, search for "os" in this page:
http://rsbweb.nih.gov/ij/developer/macro/functions.html

you will find this:

getInfo(key)
Returns the Java property associated with the specified key
(e.g., "java.version", "os.name", "user.home", "user.dir", etc.). Returns an
empty string if there is no value associated with the key. See also:
getList("java.properties"). Requires 1.38m.

which is what you want, I think.
I hope it helps
Cheers
