No, you'd have to invent a data structure to represent your design.
Something along the lines of:
gen strata1 = county
gen strata2 = 1
replace strata2 = jail if design_type == "several jails"
egen ultimate_strata = group( strata1 strata2 )
gen PSU = person
replace PSU = cluster if design_type = "several jails"
svyset PSU [pw=sampling_weight], strata( ultimate_strata )
