Yes - using adb (if onn is your android device's ip address or dns name):

adb connect onn
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
* daemon started successfully
connected to onn:5555
$ adb shell
sti6140d360:/ $ run-as org.mythtv.mythfrontend
sti6140d360:/data/data/org.mythtv.mythfrontend $ cd files
sti6140d360:/data/data/org.mythtv.mythfrontend/files $ ls -l

Then select on the screen and copy the configuration data, paste it into 
a text editor.

Make changes

copy to clipboard again

cat > config.xml

Paste the updated data.

Control-D
exit
exit

It is a bit of a long way around, because the android version of linux 
does not have vi or any other editor, but it works for me.
