Yes, look in preferences, you can configure where you want the files to be written; so point to a RAM based FS there. Another trick would be using symlinks to redirect the directory structure (useful for apps that do not allow configuration). Linux tmpfs is backed by swap, so it could hit the disks anyway.
BTW, why does GIMP have this swap folder? Why doesn't it just allocate all memory it needs and let the OS do the swapping?
Is it to support multi-GB image data on a 32 bit system? Then it would be unnecessary on a 64 bit system.
