Yes, and as others have already pointed out, there's also the
possibility of command line parameters given to OpenSSL.

A publicly available set of scripts that makes heavy use of the env var
method and might serve as an example would be easyRSA (here, version 3):

> # grep EASYRSA_REQ_ openssl-1.0.cnf 
> commonName_default      = $ENV::EASYRSA_REQ_CN
> countryName_default             = $ENV::EASYRSA_REQ_COUNTRY
> stateOrProvinceName_default     = $ENV::EASYRSA_REQ_PROVINCE
> localityName_default            = $ENV::EASYRSA_REQ_CITY
> 0.organizationName_default      = $ENV::EASYRSA_REQ_ORG
> organizationalUnitName_default  = $ENV::EASYRSA_REQ_OU
> commonName_default              = $ENV::EASYRSA_REQ_CN
> emailAddress_default            = $ENV::EASYRSA_REQ_EMAIL

> # grep EASYRSA_REQ_ easyrsa | grep -v ';;'
>         [ $EASYRSA_BATCH ] && opts="$opts -batch" || export 
> EASYRSA_REQ_CN="Easy-RSA CA"
>         [ ! $EASYRSA_BATCH ] && EASYRSA_REQ_CN="$1"
>         EASYRSA_REQ_CN="$name"
>         set_var EASYRSA_REQ_COUNTRY     "US"
>         set_var EASYRSA_REQ_PROVINCE    "California"
>         set_var EASYRSA_REQ_CITY        "San Francisco"
>         set_var EASYRSA_REQ_ORG         "Copyleft Certificate Co"
>         set_var EASYRSA_REQ_EMAIL       m...@example.net
>         set_var EASYRSA_REQ_OU          "My Organizational Unit"
>         set_var EASYRSA_REQ_CN          ChangeMe
