          There is no default option in Highcharts for this, but you can calculate the rotation for each label. Additionally, you will need to set align for axis labels to center:



              events: {
          render: function() {
          var ticks = this.xAxis[0].ticks,
          length = this.xAxis[0].categories.length,
          rotation = 360 / length / 2;

          Highcharts.objectEach(ticks, function(tick) {
          tick.label.attr({
          rotation: rotation
          });

          rotation += 360 / length;
          });
          }
          }
