Yes, but you can limit the connections per IP to something that once several 
people get on it, it will die.  Not much you can do with any type of router,

Mikrotik Hotspot does NOT have the capability of catching people behind NAT.

Example:

Joe buys a WRT54g.  WRT54g bridges to the paid wireless network.  Joe buys
and account via laptop plugged into WRT54g.  Joe plus in an AP behind the
router and broadcasts ESSID "Free Internet".  People mooch.
