I don't think so, you need a clock provider to reference clocks in DT.
You may want to ask such question on linux-arm-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
mailing list and Cc relevant maintainer(s).

I'm not sure what is the preference here, I guess a dedicated soundcard
driver could be a way to go in your case.
