Yes it is. I tested it with a "cat /tmp/fifo" and a simple program 
listening to that fifo.

This is the relevant (as I understand it) part of bacula-sd.conf in my 
config:

----
Device {
  Name = FileStorage
#  Media Type = File
  Media Type = Fifo
  Device Type = fifo
  Archive Device = /tmp/fifo
  LabelMedia = yes;                   # lets Bacula label unlabeled media
  Random Access = no;
  AutomaticMount = no;               # when device opened, read it
  RemovableMedia = no;
  AlwaysOpen = no;
#  Maximum Open Wait = 10;

}
----

and in bacula-dir.conf I changed:

----
# Definition of file storage device
Storage {
  Name = File
# Do not use "localhost" here
  Address = muenchen-server                # N.B. Use a fully qualified 
name here
  SDPort = 9103
  Password = "..."
  Device = FileStorage
  Media Type = Fifo
}
----

Everything else should be the standard example configuration as installed 
by bacula-2.0.2
Changing "LabelMedia = yes" to "no" doesn't help anything.

Any idea what could go wrong?

Thanks,

  Andreas
