Not really.
There is a subtle change in pressure just before a branch breaks. And this happens before you hear the cracking sound.
Get you a couple of branches off a tree in the garden and bend them slowly with even pressure. Keep bending them till they do break. Pay attention to what you are doing and you will feel it happen. Just takes a bit of practice.
