Well, if you mean the Cisco area based authentication then yes.
The Cisco area authentication is a Cisco way of defining which interfaces in which area must use authentication (instead of the default "null" authentication). It has only local relevance and is not defined in rfc2828 (OSPF v2).
So to mention it again: It only defines authentication in a specific area for ALL local interfaces in that area. Neighbor routers do not know you are using area authentication so they are perfectly happy to use normal interface authentication.
