Hi,
the answer is no: FLUKA belongs to the MC transport category defined as
"condensed history" approach.
In order to study DNA damage you need to define track structure at
the level of a nanometer. This can be achieved only by specialized codes.

The possible interface of FLUKA with results from a track-structure code
is at present object of research and development of some groups.
best regards.
