Not yet.

At present the best you can do is put the firmware and boot partition in eMMC and place the rootfs (and any others) on NVMe.

At some point in the future it may be possible to put the firmware in SPI and place all operating system partitions on the NVMe... but that will take time (not least because getting SPI firmware wrong will partially brick the board).

***
    Perhaps some time in the future,  The could put the SPI module in a socket, (Like they do the EMMc module)  ?
      Then put the most popular boot order on the SPI module it ships with,  ...  While offering other pre-flashed  modules for a choice in the store....
      Maybe even some blank modules for those who have the skills to flash them themselves...  WIN -  WIN - WIN   ?

       Just a thought,  or  Question,    or is that too  un-reasonable to ask...  ?

                 (My two cents)

***

    I Did purchase the adapter,  and then a PCIe/NVMe drive,  but Likely I will run my Pine book Pro stock,  with the NVMe module just sitting inside for safe keeping for now.
