In theory, yes. Someone needs to provide the code, though. For now, people who want to sign up and can't solve a captcha can request that an admin make an account for them, like people whose IP addresses are blocked. I think enwiki has a toolserver project dedicated to that.
The en.wikipedia project for that resides at [[WP:ACC]](1), The toolserver system from memory is a request type system (although that may of changed since I last looked), where as the actual accounts are created on site using the [[Special:CreateAccount]](2) special page, there is a limit for that system so that a user may only create so many accounts per hour, but we do (or did) have a override for that
