I've never seen it implemented. If you were motivated, you could do it in a plugin using Scintilla's folding API[0], but I've not seen any plugins that do that.
I don't think Geany supports SCI_LEX_CONTAINER that you need to know when/what to lex.
A plugin could look at the code and notifications and decide what and when to fold. If the lexer does folding already (unlike Markdown), the plugin would be fighting the lexer's setting of fold levels, and would probably require disabling code folding in Geany and doing everything in the plugin.
The proper solution would be to improve Scintilla's Markdown lexer to support folding though[0].
