Well currently no, since it needs a password to encrypt/decrypt the
passwords for secure storage on disk. The following bug discusses just
this and the idea seems to be to have multiple passwords/secrets to
unlock the keyring. That way pam-fprintd could provide some secret based
on the fingerprint to unlock the keyring.

However, it doesn't seem like someone is working very hard to fix
this...
