Assuming you mean SoftHSM (i/o openhsm), no, I don't think so, at least not
when using its default settings. (That is one of the main features of an HSM --
to keep the keys safe -- although there are devices which permit exporting
private keys...)

What is possible is to have BIND use PKCS#11 to use the keys stored in SoftHSM.
Lots of *cough* fun in doing that.

(BTW, this is irrespective of inline- or other forms of signing.)
