generally not, unless the brokerage lists the yearly sales by agent, etc.
some franchises have in-house "clubs", i.e. C-21 has the million dollar club, 2 million dollar club and so on. these refer to annual gross sales volume and are indicators of who are the top agents.
you are wise to try to find an agent who actually makes a good living---they can usually put together the best deal for you---but the old rule of 20% do 80% of the business holds true, especially in RE.
if you are looking for a good agent i would suggest using someone you get along with from an independent company like REMax, those agents are all brokers, and have to pay their managing broker for desk space, and statistically they do the highest volume per agent in the industry.
