Yes!  In fact, GStreamer is probably able to do this, and you can call 
GStreamer via Ruby using Ruby-GStreamer.

I never tried this, but I think you could record audio from the 
microphone using the osssrc element from the ossaudio plugin.

You will find more information about GStreamer on its homepage:

     http://www.gstreamer.net

And for Ruby bindings:

     http://www.freesoftware.fsf.org/ruby-gst

Current API (CVS):

     http://lrz.samika.net/ruby-gst/api/index.html

Ruby-GStreamer 0.1.1 will be released in a few days, featuring a lot of 
improvements.

Cheers,
