Yes, but that would involve either tracing the session, or put the server in trace mode. To put the server in trace mode, add/change the line sql_trace = true
to init<sid>.ora.
Files will end up in the directory pointed to by user_dump_dest on the server.
The sqlnet trace provides some useful extra info, that can help you to identify unnecessary closing of cursors. You can identify this, if you see the same data being transmitted several times.

Hth,
