Probably.
javax.faces.convert.DateTimeConverter uses DateFormat.parse() to
generate an object, and that object is a java.util.Date.
An easy solution would be to create a subclass of
javax.faces.convert.DateTimeConverter that overrode getAsObject() and
changed the java.util.Date to a java.sql.Date.
public Object getAsObject(FacesContext facesContext, UIComponent
uiComponent, String value)
{
java.util.Date date = super.getAsObject(facesContext,
uiComponent, value);
if (null == date) return null;
return convertJavaUtilDateToJavaSqlDate(date);
}
I think you could then just register this as your global converter for
java.sql.Date types.
