Yep! Here's an example:

 var pathToPushSound = $"android.resource://com.your.package/raw/{soundName}";
 var soundUri = Android.Net.Uri.Parse(pathToPushSound);
 var builder = new NotificationCompat.Builder(_context)
            .SetContentTitle("TITLE")
            .SetContentText("TEXT")
            .SetPriority(1)
            .SetSmallIcon(Resource.Drawable.TransparentLogo)
            .SetOngoing(true)
            .SetSound(soundUri);
 builder.Build();

The URI is the path to the resource where your sound file lives, then you set that URI in your NotificationBuilder using the SetSound method.
