In theory, yes, but using a fiq is not a straightforward change on recent 
kernel versions.

Freescale FIQ demo code has not been updated since their 3.0.35 kernel, which 
was before the majority of the devicetree migration. (and it was a pretty ugly 
hack, even then). 

have a look at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/333901
To get an idea what might be involved.
