Yes; they are several ways to do so:

- install a Spotlight metadata importer (or an application that includes one) that handles this file type. As dart files are probably plain text files, this is probably not necessary though.

- install an application (e.g. an IDE or text editor) that declares the .dart file type as conforming to the UTI (Uniform Type Identifier) public.source-code or public.plain-text.

- in last resort, there is a command line setting in FoxTrot to make it index a specific file type as another one; first quit FoxTrot, then type the following command to a Terminal.app window:

defaults write com.ctmdev.foxtrot Aliases -array-add "{type='dart'; as='txt';}"

You will then have to rebuild your index.
