No. CSS3 may offer the ability to resize background images, but browsers don't support it yet.

Your best bet is to use a non-repeating background image with a background color that matches the border of the image. See the FAQ entry How do I have a non-tiling (non-repeating) background image?

You can stop a background from tiling but you can't stretch it. Maybe you used an inline image.
