Yes, that's what people have been explaining: you insert a line
something like:

   host  [database]   [user]   0.0.0.0/0   md5

if you're asking if pg_hba.conf can be bypassed completely, then as far
as I know the answer is no. However, inserting the line above will
have a similar effect, at least with regard to incoming network connections.
