Yes, there is a way, but it's not pleasant.

The indentation of paragraphs in lists, such as \itemize, is governed
by the \listparindent, which is set to zero by the \list command.
However, you can use the commands \@listi, \@listii, et cetera
to set other defaults. Look in the style file to see the current
definition, and add a setting for \listparindent to it.

\makeatletter
\renewcommand{\@listi}{ .... \listparindent=\parindent}
\makeatother

in the preamble of your document should do the job.
