Short answer: no. To make any changes at all requires that you've
identified yourself.
Longer answer: in 1.4 the mgd_auth_midgard function can now be used as
mgd_auth_midgard(user,password,0) and the user id will be set to user for
the duration of that particular request. The last 0 suppresses sending the
cookie which would hold the password. So you set up a specific user that
has just enough privileges to make changes in the topic tree you want,
then call mgd_auth_midgard just before you want to save your changes.

Then other than the 'suppress cookie' thing above 1.2.5 should work. But
we're going to have a discussion soon about whether sitegroups will become
non-optional (and thus being the default midgard behaviour).
