I don't think so. even if 'passwd' works, that still leaves a big
chunk out: authenticating to the database to add a user to it. I don't
think PAM offers a way to do this, PAM is meant to be a real simple thing.

You could make a script(or modify adduser) to use LDAP, but out of
the box I do not believe it's capable of supporting it.
