Yes - that's normally as easy as:

# cat /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf
interface=wlan0
driver=nl80211
logger_syslog=-1
logger_syslog_level=2
logger_stdout=-1
logger_stdout_level=1
ctrl_interface_group=wheel
ssid=YetAnotherAP
country_code=JP
hw_mode=g
channel=10
beacon_int=100
dtim_period=2
max_num_sta=255
rts_threshold=-1
fragm_threshold=-1
macaddr_acl=0
auth_algs=1
ignore_broadcast_ssid=0
wmm_enabled=0
eapol_key_index_workaround=0
eap_server=0
wpa=2
wpa_passphrase=****************
wpa_pairwise=CCMP
wps_state=0

Also, the `head -c12 /dev/urandom | openssl base64` command would give you a
really good passphrase.
