No, it is not possible. But you do not have to use the default method
Microsoft has of using the Membership. You can, if you have a completely
different schema/method create your own provider. Then you can use the
LoginView.
Here is a good set of articles:
http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/120705-1.aspx
For an example, I would look at this:

There is also a sample membership provider linked off this article. David
Hayden has also written an article, but his is extremely simple, so it could
be insulting to read something so simple if you already have a good grasp of
..NET (great for beginners to the provider model, however). There are also
articles on 15 seconds, devx, etc.
The custom membership model is one I use often on sites, as the
ASPNET_Profile table is a nasty way of storing extra information to adorn a
user object.
