I wanted to say : "Sure it is if you want to *easily* filter queries :-)"
mod_FastCGI handle every thing that resolve to the filename specified after FastCgiExternalServer directive

Not necessary

In fact the only need for you is to resolve what you want to handle to the path specified by FastCgiExternalServer, eg :

<VirtualHost *>
  DocumentRoot /my/doc/root

  # /my/fcgi/bin/dir/ doesn't need to exist
  Alias /fcgi/ /my/fcgi/bin/dir/
  AddHandler php-fastcgi .php
  Action php-fastcgi /fcgi/php.fcgi
  # therefore /my/fcgi/bin/dir/php.fcgi doesn't need to exist
  FastCgiExternalServer /my/fcgi/bin/dir/php.fcgi -socket /my/path/to/php-fcgi.sock
</VirtualHost>
