Yes :

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "Logitech MouseMan Wheel"
        Driver      "mouse"
        Option      "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
        Option      "Device" "/dev/gpmdata"

        # Note: Protocol must match the 'type' set to gpm
        Option      "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
EndSection


I use gpm also, with 'imps2' as the protocol and 'raw' as the repeat
type.  This particular mouse works as either USB (/dev/input/mice)[1] or
PS/2 (/dev/misc/psaux)[1].
