I think the short answer is yes/no/kinda. 

I think there's a couple parts to this. Munge is just used to assert that you 
are who you say you are. You could certainly write your own auth plugin that 
uses perhaps the Kerberos or X509 capabilities of Redhat Identity Management. 
If you use Kerberos you'll need to deal with service principals and token 
lifespan but if you're already accustomed to doing that it might not be a big 
deal. Here's the docs for writing an authentication plugin 
http://slurm.schedmd.com/authplugins.html

The other part to this as far as user identities are concerned comes into play 
when using the accounting database. That's really the only account database in 
SLURM that would need feeding. You could write some scripts to populate your 
accounting database based on information in the red hat identity management 
database. Much of this would be site specific though, I suspect. 

So all the hooks are there to make this work, you'd just need the glue to pull 
it all together.
