Yes.

If the environment variable GRASS_RENDER_IMMEDIATE is set to TRUE,
libraster uses the built-in "PNG driver" instead of connecting to a
monitor. All of the environment variables which the PNG driver
understands apply to immediate rendering.

This should be backwards-compatible, i.e. so long as you don't set
GRASS_RENDER_IMMEDIATE, everything should work as before.

I've attached the code in case anyone wants to try it now.
