Yes but also no, the fairphone doesn't meet the extensive list of requirements required to maintain the goal of GrapheneOS - List of requirements for devices
Some of those requirements are really hard to get for non-Google devices. EOM don't get updates as early as Google engineers gets. It takes time to validate everything, especially since their don't control their own hardware.
Those requirements are more a way to not appear like dicks by telling that they'll only supports Pixels.
