other than shooting some oil into it,just when you are testing it,or have it flooded..NO.The Seals get worn,period.and besides breaking the engine down and replacing them,the compression is gonna stay the same.(.The oil just creates a Thin Barrier that will raise Compression.Once the oil gets scraped off,the Compression returns to what it was before).

ATF sometimes works to unstick seals, assuming that's your problem.
