You can filter those tracks that do not have a composer:  
%composer% IS ""

Whether other databases supply data for composer, I do not know.

But: if the composer and artist are the same, you can easily copy the data from the field artist into the field composer with an action of the type "Format tag field". Just enter for the field composer the formatstring %artist%.
