If you can use bbcode or html for the section icon, yes.

I plan on updating this to Font Awesome 4.5, and add some reference FAQs in the next few days.
I'm also looking at adding Stacked Icons BBCode

[MattGarner]

Awesome, any chance it can support the new icons in 4.5 as well?

Yep, next version coming very soon. In this next version, I will make updating the base FA easier, without having to update the entire plugin.
