Not in a way you're trying to achieve. Drupal does not have any support for 
this, as far as I know, so you have to do this manually, which seems to be 
very complicated.

In theory it would be possible to write an extension to shib_auth, which could 
automatically perform the session initiation redirect for certain nodes. If 
you need this, then file a feature request for the module, but I can't promise 
that it will be implemented soon. (It would need a configuration interface 
something like the role assignment rules, therefore it needs another database 
table, etc. Not an easy stuff.)
