Nah, it was a thing for a while, with very spotty support (source: I genuinely, unironically used this feature), and then it got cut when 3D monitors went the way of the dodo, back in 2021
I bet the support is way better now, because computers generally support VR, and 3D is a subset of that.
I was saying below that I wonder how much the work in modding VR into games, which has led to some very portable frameworks, would help support for 3D monitors if they were to return...
...but that said, that's still a per-game mod thing, so I expect at least some work would remain, and you'd ideally want built-in out of the box support, rather than having to mod it in each time. Still, it's a possibility. I'd love to find out in practice.
