Not... really, to my knowledge at least.

How was the document saved (click the save button on toolbar?)

Can you describe the crash in more detail?  How often had you been
saving this document over the past several days?

The only way I can think of to 'recover' a file from 2 days ago is if
Open office starts, tells you there's a file to recover, which opens
from the temp folder, and then you *save*, which would overwrite your
good file with the one that was just recovered... But a 'recovered' file
does not replace your saved copy on it's own.
