Yes it is possible, but Datagrid expects values to be objects with attributes instead of a dict. To workaround this issue you can store the values (or convert the dict to) a tg.util.Bunch object which will provide access both with __getitem__ and __getattr__.
In any case DataGrid permits to pass any callable to retrieve the column values when declaring the fields attribute instead of property name.
