Yes - in both.

o  Select the text.
o  Go to Format | Character... | Font Effects | Strikethrough, and 
select an option from the drop-down menu.

As well as a character property, strikethrough can also be a property 
of character styles and paragraph styles (though not of paragraphs).

You can do this yourself:
o  Click the down-arrow at the right end of the Formatting toolbar 
and select Customize toolbar... | Toolbars.
o  Under Toolbar Content, click Add... .
o  Under Category select Format, under Commands select Strikethrough, 
and click Add and Close.
o  Click the up and down arrows to move your new button to where you 
want it - apparently below Underline.
o  Click OK.

I trust this helps.
