Can I make GetOpenFileName return paths longer than MAX_PATH?

I'm using the GetOpenFileName API, or in my case MFC's CFileDialog to open files, pretty much like it's shown here (except for a single file selection -- i.e. I provided my own longer buffer in `m_ofn.lpstrFile`.) It works fine, except when a user picks a file whose path becomes longer than `MAX_PATH - 1` (or 259) characters. In that case the following happens: On my Windows 8.1, it converts the user selected path into an archaic 8.3 short file format: `"C:\TESTDE~1\NEWFOL~1"` On Windows XP I can't even select anything, I get this: So I'm curious, since the OS itself supports long Unicode paths, prefixed with `\\?\` (including XP) is there any way to coax GetOpenFileName to return paths in that format as well and not be limited by 259 characters?
