Yes. A simple solution would be to use a symmetric encryption like simple-crypt to encrypt and decrypt your passwords using a key that you provide externally. Here's a quick example:

import simplecrypt

SECRET_KEY = 'my_secret_key' # Get this from a file, enter it manually or by other sufficiently secure means

# Example code to generate the encrypred password
my_password = 'super_secret'
my_encrypted_password = simplecrypt.encrypt(SECRET_KEY, text)

# This is what you put in settings.py
my_encrypted_password = 'KLJJ543#EURO%'
my_password = simplecrypt.decrypt(SECRET_KEY, my_encrypted_password)
