Judging by set_password_with_computer_creds() found in adcli
library/adenroll.c the answer to my question is yes.  I was wondering
if kadmin could be used to rotate a machine's password against an AD
KDC, but that doesn't appear to be an option.  I guess I should try to
learn clang so that I can better understand the "magic" behind this
method.  This inquiry was partly prompted by a desire to use adcli
update to force a machine password change and to overcome adcli's
refusal to do so:
* Password not too old, no change needed

I was able to overcome this by adding a new SPN to the computer
account with --add-service-principal=<..>

however I was hoping to change the machine password every minute if
needed, simply for debug purposes.  Adding and removing SPNs is not a
terrible solution however it would be nice to have a --force option.
That said, I really have nothing to complain about.  I sincerely want
to thank you for developing sssd and ancillary tools such as adcli.
