Yes, and many distros have a polkit rule set up to allow installing or updating without a password. You can likely just copy it from Fedora or sth

Could you please elaborate on that ? Thanks

Fedora just has

polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
    if ((action.id == "org.freedesktop.packagekit.package-install" ||
         action.id == "org.freedesktop.packagekit.package-remove") &&
        subject.active == true && subject.local == true &&
        subject.isInGroup("wheel")) {
            return polkit.Result.YES;
    }
});

in /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/org.freedesktop.packagekit.rules. If you put the same file in there, it should work.
