No, there aren't. Only Owners or Postmasters can issue QUIET commands.

Neither of these will affect logged data. There's no way to prevent
actions from being recorded in the LISTSESRV system log.
For completeness' sake, here are some extracts from the LISTSERV 14.3
Developer's Guide:
Echo=YES|NO
The default value (if the keyword is omitted) is YES and
indicates that each command must be echoed to the job
output before execution. The command is then prefixed
with a "> ", and preceded by a blank line on the job output.
Stat=YES|NO
(Starting with 1.8d) Determines whether or not server
statistics ("Summary of resource utilization") for a given
JOB are output in the command response to the invoker. The
default is YES. A server-wide default (also starting with
1.8d) may be set with the JOB_STAT_DEFAULT site configuration
variable.
