You should be able to do that if you are using Netscape 7.0
or Mozilla 1.0.1 or newer.  In these recent versions of the
Netscape and Mozilla browsers, the PKCS11 module provided by
Netscape is a separate DLL (I'm assuming you're on Windows)
called softokn3.dll.

softokn3.dll depends on the following DLLs, which are in the
same directory as softokn3.dll in a Netscape or Mozilla client
installation: nspr4.dll, plds4.dll, plc4.dll.
