MO said no, but accepted {ghungHa'} for "not hungry any more". You cannot use it though to say that you are not hungry, that should be {ghungbe'} "not hungry". But if you are hungry first, then you eat enough, then you can say {DaH jIghungHa'} "Now I am un-hungry" (= "not hungry any more"). It also works with {'oj} the same way.
