No.  The code currently requires an entry, and furthermore requires that 
entry has a userCertificate attribute whose value matches the client 
certificate.

But you do want to use the access control features of Fedora DS on that 
identity.  You are the second person to ask about this recently.  This 
would probably involve quite a few code changes:
1) The client cert auth code would have to allow access by non-existent 
users.  Perhaps we could use the cert db to optionally look up the 
certificate for comparison.
2) The access control code would have to allow access by non-existent users.

If the identity store is another LDAP server, you may be able to use 
chaining.
