yes it is. Look well the instructions given in handbook

*https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/extragear-graphics/digikam/using-setup.html#using-setup-database
<https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/extragear-graphics/digikam/using-setup.html#using-setup-database>*

All is explained. If something is missing, don't hesitate to give a
feedback to patch handbook.

I use also for testing a mariadb remote server here hosted on a NAS, and it
work as expected.
