It is indeed. Next to the bottom scrollbar, on the left of it in a
left-to-right locale, you'll see a small dotted rectangle. Pres it, or
press Q, to toggle Quickmask, and now you can paint to change the
selection.

This doesn't really work well with greyscale images, change to RGB first
if needed.
