Unfortunately, no.

If you put a line like
iface wifi0 inet dhcp
in /etc/network/interfaces, the dhcp client will start in the
foreground. If you need 802.1x (xsupplicant) there is a cleaner way by
starting dhclient3 from the xsupplicant.

My wpa - 802.1x - wep - no_encryption network mess even requires more
hacking and using ugly shell scripts, so i really look forward to seeing
everything integrated.
