Not for an individual glyph.

Multiple glyphs *can* be hinted in parallel, but at that point there's nothing
specific about hinting: multiple glyphs can be loaded in parallel.  Except
that FT_Face and FT_Library are not thread-safe.  If they were (and it's
possible to change them to be, by breaking API), then yes, it can be
parallelized.  But that's something for the application to (call FT_Load_Glyph
from multiple threads), not within FreeType.
