I can’t speak to “support”, but it definitely works.  See 
https://github.com/gitbls/pistrong. The makeTunnel script can build this.

Subject: [strongSwan] initiate from both sides

Hello everyone,

I'm using Strongswan on FreeBSD and wanted to ask if it is possible to have a 
tunnel initiated by both sides?
Currently I have one side witch uses start/restart/start for the start/dpd/stop 
actions and one side that uses trap/trap/trap.
However since I have dynamic ips on both sides, I'm relying on dynamic dns to 
find the other host. But propagation of the new address takes a while, which 
results in delays after the ip of the responder changes.
If both sides would be initiating/reinitiating the tunnels, the problem would 
be solved because if one side can't initiate the tunnel, due to dns propagation 
delays the other side would be able to connect. (Well, unless both sides get 
new ips at the same time.)
Is this kond of configuration supported?

Best regards,
Christoph
