the short answer is no
the long answer is:
- if you test requesting FPM with a non PHP script, it will return the
content of the file
- But the content-type and others headers are not set correctly
- More globaly, FPM goal is NOT to serve static files. It's not been
design for this. Let apache and other web servers serve static files,
it's what they've been designed for !
- from a perfomances point of view, if you let FPM to server static
files, you'll get very poor performances.
