As Binand stated yes.
add this line to your /etc/auto.master
/mnt     /etc/auto.mnt   --timeout=60

then add this line to /etc/auto.mnt

camera -fstype=auto /dev/sda1

you should able to mount any folder and it is useful especially for 
removable/networked fs's on demand, reducing lots of unnecessary queries 
made by varies applications when mounted. there by reducing the workload 
and network bandwith usages(applications includes are mostly df, sshd, 
konqueror and etc...)
