Yes, you can use username and password. In this tutorial, the
strongSwan server authenticates with a certificate, and the various
clients authenticate with a user name and password:

This procedure was tested on an Amazon EC2 t2.micro instance running
Ubuntu 16.04. The version of the strongSwan package installed was
5.3.5-1ubuntu3.
