Yeah. Look at the sample "oldskool2" for one way to acheive an effect like this (although it fades to black, but changing it to white is really pretty much a no-brainer).

The relevant code is reproduced below:
SetBlend ALPHABLEND
SetAlpha term
SetColor 0,0,0
DrawRect 0,0,640,480
SetAlpha 1
SetColor 255,255,255
The variable "term", is a float that slowly moves from 0 -> 1 as the program dies.
