No, Mirax data is not yet supported by Bio-Formats, but we are working on it.
There is a ticket open on our issue tracking system:

http://trac.openmicroscopy.org.uk/ome/ticket/4121

If you would like to be automatically notified of updates to that
ticket, please let me know and I will CC you.

Regards,
