I think you can.  At least I can ;)  This what I did:

- in xorg.conf I only have Modes "1024x768" so I have X running at 1024x768 on 
my vga out

- I trial-and-error'ed with nvtv untill I had a config that displayed X on the 
tv-out with a stable image.  The problem is that only a part of my desktop is 
displayed on my tv.  I enable this config with this comand:
nvtv --tv-on -r 768,576 -s Large

- I run mythfront in a window and played with the settings untill mythfrontend 
is exactly fitted in the part of the desktop that's displayed on my tv.
