Yes... in a way. Turning on 2FA requires a password and with LDAP
logins, Discourse has a null password for your account.

You can generate a password for your account by using the forgotten
password link. This will then enable you to turn on 2FA. Note: this
means that you won't be able to log in with LDAP (or in fact, Google or
Github)

I guess it comes down to your desire for security vs ease of use. LDAP
is easier, but can't do 2FA. Local Discourse accounts can do 2FA, but
that's another password to remember.
