No. This paper describes tests on a B-747, C-17, and MD-11 using propulsion only: http://www.dfrc.nasa.gov/DTRS/1999/PDF/H-2331.pdf Differential thrust (per side) induces a sideslip -> induces roll. Changes in thrust (thrust line offset from CG in Z) induces pitch changes as well as accel/decel. Etc. Again, this is something that the JSBSim FCS components could handle - you need building blocks.
