Not as far as I can see.  fixed-clock appears to have two properies:

	clock-frequency
	clock-output-names

and nothing else.  See of_fixed_clk_setup in drivers/clk/clk-fixed-rate.c.
You'll also find that the documentation in this file says this about it:

 * DOC: basic fixed-rate clock that cannot gate
 *
 * Traits of this clock:
 * prepare - clk_(un)prepare only ensures parents are prepared
 * enable - clk_enable only ensures parents are enabled
 * rate - rate is always a fixed value.  No clk_set_rate support
 * parent - fixed parent.  No clk_set_parent support

So, I think the bit which you quote from imx51-babbage.dts is wishful
thinking on the part of the author of the DT file, rather than actually
being implemented in any way by the kernel DT support.
