Is it possible to include the private key in an openssl-generated CSR?

Is it possible to include the private key in an openssl-generated CSR?

I'm using openssl on linux to generate a certificate signing request (CSR)
that will be submitted to a Windows Certificate Services Certification
Authority that has been configured to archive private keys.
Unfortunately, I can't figure out how to use openssl to generate a CSR
that includes the private key so that the CA can both issue my cert and
archive the private key.
Does anyone here know how to accomplish this?
