No, it does not.  The initial design target for NetworkManager was a
mobile laptop user and this did not include any form of connection
sharing/bridging.

ICS is quite interesting though, and it's not that easy to set up on
Linux.  So it's an area where NetworkManager could help out a lot.  And
we are planning to add support for multiple active interfaces in the
near future.  But it likely won't do what you want it to right now.
