Is there a way to do this?

You know, using a truly static screensaver defeats the purpose of a screensaver (which is to prevent screen burn-in from leaving a static image up!) This isn't as much of a problem with LCDs as it is with CRTs or plasma displays, but it's still probably not the best approach.
