No. The preamble only states that the former colonies (known as states since federation) will come together as a Commonwealth of Australia. Annexation of any other area would require a referendum in Australia AND the agreement of, in this case, New Zealand's parliament
EDIT: It seems that New Zealand DOES get a mention in section 6 of the constitution....
"The Commonwealth" shall mean the Commonwealth of Australia as established under this Act.
"The States" shall mean such of the colonies of New South Wales, New Zealand, Queensland, Tasmania, Victoria, Western Australia, and South Australia, including the northern territory of South Australia, as for the time being are parts of the Commonwealth, and such colonies or territories as may be admitted into or established by the Commonwealth as States; and each of such parts of the Commonwealth shall be called "a State".
"Original States" shall mean such States as are parts of the Commonwealth at its establishment.
Since New Zealand is mentioned here, it may mean that there is a "loophole" to argue for annexation, but this is not necessarily a "provision"
