Yes, OpenConnect (in general) supports PKCS#11:

I don't know offhand if the build in the Google Play Store includes
PKCS#11 support. Can you show 'openconnect --version' output?

If it does, you just need to make sure that the PKCS#11 module for your
card (probably OpenSC) is installed correctly, and has an appropriate
p11-kit module file so that it's visible to applications. The above web
page should be sufficient.
