No, CHAP, and MS-CHAP (the inner authentication method used with PEAP)
require clear text passwords.  Therefore, the shadow password file is not
compatible with these methods.  This bit me to start with.

You could always try TTLS with SYSTEM as the inner authentication mechanism?
Alan is a strong proponent of TTLS vs PEAP, and I have to say that in a
purist sense, he's absolutely right.  Unfortunately, the two largest players
in the market have used (two incompatible versions of) PEAP :-(.  This means
that it is more trivial, particularly with Microsoft based clients, to use
PEAP/MS-CHAPv2.

Guy
