Not currently.  Does your database have an encrypt function that you could add 
to the query?  If not, you might try your hand at writing a new plugin or 
modifying an existing one to suit your needs.  If you get it working, send it 
to me and I'll merge it in to pysieved.

Or you could just wait for the Dovecot authentication plugin to work properly, 
which should solve your problems with minimal fiddling :)
