Yes. PGP Whole Disk Encryption for Windows supports certificate-based pre-boot authentication certificates as long as the certificate used is on a supported smart card or USB token. Any key or certificate can be used for non-boot volumes or flash drives. When not used for boot-level security, a token is not required to use a key or certificate.
