As far as I know, that's not directly possible. Here is how I would do
the API for it:

- see
  http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sw/source/ui/uiview/view2.cxx#639
  on how to check if an SwPosition (that's the internal equivalent of a
  position in the document model) is inside a redline using
  SwDoc::GetRedline()

- it's already possible to check if the cursor is e.g. at the end of
  line:

  http://api.libreoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/view/XLineCursor.html#isAtEndOfLine

  The implementation of that is in the SwXTextViewCursor class:

  http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sw/source/ui/uno/unotxvw.cxx#1649

From that, you could add a new isInRedline() method to the cursor, which
would return exactly what you need.

HTH,
