Not directly, but you can use gnutls_sign_callback_set to set a callback
to perform signing operations during the handshake.  I've tested this
with a Swedish X.509 eID ID card and it worked fine.  There is an old
PKCS#11 branch of GnuTLS that adds a library libgnutls-pkcs11 that is
linked to a PKCS#11 library; it uses the callback interface.
