No. Or at least, not any longer. There was a font package available a few years ago that was an offshoot of some work done by Markus Kuhn and Ross Anderson at the University of Cambridge. More recently, they improved the attack enough that the fonts were no longer effective. See http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/emsec/softtempest-faq.html I'll update the manual so it does not reference the fonts any longer.
