Not natively no. All the tools I know of that use a database backend finish
off with exporting the config to a format Nagios can read.

I'd recommend you either read the docs and bite the bullet, or contact one
of the many companies selling support around Nagios.

Netways is germany based, although I think they cater more for larger
customers and do more consultancy style thing.

op5 sells a product including a webconfiguration frontend which works rather
well.

it groundworks is a US-based company that have a webbased frontend that's
opensource (fruity), although I have no idea how well it works with Nagios 3.

Altinity in the UK also do Nagios support.

YMMV.
