No. A possible workaround is have a SUID/SGID version of you
interpreter and use it. Something like

# pw groupadd -n sush -g 401
# cp /bin/sh /bin/sush
# chown root:sush /bin/sush
# chmod 4750 /bin/sush
# pw usermod johndoe -G sush

Then start your script with "#!/bin/sush" and user johndoe,as well as
any member of the "sush" group will be able to it run as root. I think
I don't need to warn you that they will be able to run *any* command
as root, in fact. For a better approach, consider using sudo, instead
(/usr/ports/security/sudo).

make an omelette without breaking eggs". Not because I like the
omelettes, but because I like the sound of eggs being broken.
