Maybe, I'm not sure unless I have the chance to try. Here's what you can 
try:

 * Change "blog" to "cgi-bin/pyblosxom.cgi" and test, unfortunately, may 
not work, I believe.
 * Move cgi-bin/pyblosxom.cgi to pyblosxom.cgi and don't forget your 
config.py as well, then change "blog" to "pyblosxom.cgi" in the example 
.htaccess
 * If your webserver does not allow you to run scripts on the document 
root, then add these lines:

<Files pyblosxom.cgi>
        SetHandler cgi-script
</Files>

Of course the main web server configuration must allow you to override the files handler options (most hosting providers do)

 * Setup a redirect script using php
 * Use a server-side include with index.shtml that includes the output 
of pyblosxom cgi

Of course for the last two steps, one must google it up :) I'm not sure 
if the first option would work for you.

Looking at the second and third option, your .htaccess should look like:
---------------------
DirectoryIndex pyblosxom.cgi
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ pyblosxom.cgi/$1 [L,QSA]

<Files pyblosxom.cgi>
    SetHandler cgi-script
</Files>
