I doubt it, but I grew plants from seed from sun-dried toms, and have not bought tomato seed for some years. I just save seed from tasty toms. Geoffrey Smith says peach-stones generally survive the canning process, and will grow pretty true to type. I'd be amazed if a tomato seed did, though -- and would be rather worried about the safety of a tin of tomatoes whose seeds were still viable, as it would suggest the contents hadn't been properly heat-treated.
