Yes. Use FvwmForm according to the manual. Short man:
Type this in an directory in your module path:
ln -s /yourfvwmpath/bin/FvwmForm QuitVerify
Type this in your .fvwmrc (ver 2) file:
*QuitVerifyGrabServer
*QuitVerifyFont         -adobe-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
*QuitVerifyButtonFont   -adobe-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
*QuitVerifyFore         Black
*QuitVerifyBack         #adadad
*QuitVerifyItemFore     Black
*QuitVerifyItemBack     #adadad
*QuitVerifyCommand      Beep
*QuitVerifyLine         center
*QuitVerifyText         "Do you really want to logout?"
*QuitVerifyLine         expand
*QuitVerifyButton       quit            "Logout"        ^M
*QuitVerifyCommand      Exec $HOME/bin/quit &  # Favourite logout command!
*QuitVerifyButton       quit            "Cancel"        ^[
*QuitVerifyCommand      Nop
And add this to a Goodstuff button (or to a menu):
*FvwmButtons - quit.xpm        Module QuitVerify
My favourite logout command is a shell: 
kill -9 `ps -x | awk '/286323198/ && ! /awk/ {print $1}'`
For this to work the last line in the .xinitrc file should be:
sleep 286323198
All other commands in the .xinitrc should have an & after them.
Then you'll have it.
