No, but you *can* configure newer SSH daemons to use x509s for authentication.

"Newer" is relative. Not every OS vendor (*cough* Red Hat *cough*) is quick to update. Still not sure if OpenSSH (particularly the versions used by conservative distros like Red Hat and its clones) directly supports x509 or if they just support the more stripped-down SSH certificates.
