Yes & Yes.

By default, any PIV-based Smart card is automatically supported by macOS Sierra using the New SmartCardServices — CryptoTokenKit Token for PIV included in macOS Sierra.

Hopefully, you all are already quite familiar with the CLI commands related to SmartCardServices & Security:

Configure Legacy SmartCardServices Instructions
$ man SmartCardServices-legacy

Configure New SmartCardServices Instructions
$ man SmartCardServices

(Note case of letters for man pages)
