No, and I at least often don't want to check in all at once.

This means that the checkins are not complete or that they contain
superfluous incomplete parts of unrelated changes. This is nothing where
a technical means can enforce completeness, the only thing you could do
is to force them to work in a branch, and only when the branch builds
cleanly they are allowed to reintegrate this into the trunk. That way,
only they are affected by the changes.
However, I'd sit down with that developer and explain them this issue,
that it breaks your work, other peoples' work and that it makes it
impossible to step back in history to find out which commit exactly
caused an error. A similar problem applies to the case when people check
in more than a single change at once, you can never tell which of the
many changes caused an error.
I'd then also sit next to them when they're making the next commit, to
make sure that the commit only contains one change and that the change
is complete and that I'm 100% satisfied with the results. Doing that a
few times, they might get the clue.
