Customize braces with StyleCop

Question

Is it possible to get StyleCop to say that this is the right way to use curly braces?

if (request.Query == string.Empty) {
    return SearchResponse.Empty;
}

But not this

if (request.Query == string.Empty)
    return SearchResponse.Empty;

Or that:

if (request.Query == string.Empty)
{
    return SearchResponse.Empty;
}

I also want this behavior for if, else, else if, while, foreach and for. But not for class declarations or method declarations.

I do not think he does it out of the box; however, StyleCop comes with an SDK that contains instructions on how to create your own rules. Although it would be very helpful if someone already created a custom rule that executes what you are describing, you may find that you must roll yourself.
