Hi Frank.  No, it is not possible right now.

Ideally, I think the proper way to do this is to let pam_oath take care
of validating the OATH OTP part only, and let another PAM module take
care of validating the password.  I'm just waiting for someone to ask
about storing passwords in LDAP....  that would also ideally best be
taken care of by another PAM module and some fancy PAM configuration.

If someone has any ideas on how this would work, please share them.
