No, this is not possible. Well, there is always a hope. Here is a hack
which I can suggest.
Create trans-1x1.xpm in ~/.fvwm, containing one line:
/* XPM */static char *trans_1x1_xpm[] = { "1 1 1 1", ". c None", "." }
Now execute these commands:
SnapAttraction 10 Windows
Style */trans-1x1.xpm NoTitle, NoHandles, BorderWidth 0, NeverFocus, \
Sticky, StaysOnBottom, CirculateSkip, WindowListSkip
# the following three commands should be in InitFunction
Exec killall sxpm; sxpm $./trans-1x1.xpm
Wait */trans-1x1.xpm
Next (*/trans-1x1.xpm CirculateHit) Move 50 50
The side effect is that now all your windows snap to each other, which may
be not what you want. Other than that works fine for me. Snaps to center.

More general DeleteSnapRectangles/AddSnapRectangle? Shrug.
