In a nutshell, yes.

You need to modify the FEX so that the SPI is enabled and then use a JNI driver to control it.

I am working on this just now but will be a few weeks before I have it finished.

In the meantime, this book explains how to write the JNI. It's for the Beaglebone Black but the basics are the same. This is where I am basing my A20 driver on.
