No. Low frequency detectors are large, football field sized, usually in
arrays covering tens of acres, and require sophisticated signal processing.
Besides, Mars has a very thin atmosphere making the likelihood of a sonic
blast much less likely. The rover may be able to transmit images of the
comet to us if it is within view.

It is predicted that in October 2014 Comet 2013 A1 will pass close to,
possibly caressing the upper atmosphere of,  Mars. Are the Mars rover probes
equipped with Very Low Frequency receivers if this event should occur?
