No, Konsole is not aware of whether processes are running in the shells or not.  The program running in the shell is able to set the Konsole title by putting certain sequences of characters in the output stream.

Unfortunately the only way I know of reliably finding out whether there is a program running in the shell is to scan the contents of the /proc filesystem and looking for processes which list the shell process as their parent.  This is a little slow, but not impossible.

Konsole could probably make an intelligent guess as to whether or not a program is running by looking at the amount of time since output from the program running in the shell was received.
