Yes, but the GPIO API doesn't support dedicated pin usage. Basically all I can 
do is configure a pin as a general purpose input or output, and set its level 
when configured as an output. The GPIO API doesn't provide any way to access 
the PAR and SOR registers.

Beside, the GPIO API won't help configuring clock routing.
