The blunt answer is NO, but let me give you a few suggestions that may be of some use.
Your main problem is that you do not have means of identifying people who need to be given access to the forum.
Here are several possible solutions:
1) For people who request access for it via e-mail, post cards etc... you can create an account via the Admin "Add User" control page and send them the login/password via whatever means are available. When creating an account via the control panel you can enter a bogus e-mail address the person can change later on.
2) Turn on account moderation, meaning that new forum accounts must be approved by the administrator before they become active. Whether or not account should be activated would be based on the data a person had entered upon registration.
3) You can allow anyone to read the forum, but set a posting password, which is something only authorized users would be aware of. This would allow those users to post new topics and replies.
