Sure, if you're looking for that kind of signal I guess!

Though bear in mind that repeated radio signals like that also exist in nature in the form of things like spinning black holes and neutron stars.

If we were looking in the Cosmic Background Radiation for subtle repetition, we probably wouldn't be able to differentiate it from natural sources.

Also bear in mind that the other reason such signals get lost is also because they fall below the signal strength of the CBR, and get entirely overwhelmed, not just masked in the random noise.
I'm not expert on signals-analysis or radio-waves, but I don't think there's a way to extract meaningful data out of that.
