Yes, but expect some tricky fiddling :-) However, comparing the bug history - some of chrony's ones haven't been handled or closed for 5+ years, also the relevant ones here - and the number of users of chrony (847) and openntpd (1902), I strongly suggest you considering a switch to the openntpd package.
