No, but there's a rule which explicitly says that "needle beamed"
systems 
cannot be repaired by *damage control parties* - doesn't say anything
about 
"during a battle". Sure, you can repair/replace needled systems between 
battles... but only if you have access to more advanced repair
facilities 
than those of your DCPs.

Similarly, if a battle goes on for long enough even a single DCP is 
sufficient to repair every damaged system aboard the ship *during* the
battle.
