There is in Nagios 2.0. It's a bit dubious though, since hosts can be
members of several hostgroups and it only shows one of them.
Documentation doesn't say anything about the rules of election.

To hack around it;
hostgroup=`grep -2 $HOSTNAME$ hostgroups.cfg | grep hostgroup_name | \
head -1 | sed 's/.*hostgroup_name[ ]*//'`
I'm sure its equally trivial in other script languages.
