Yes. See this sample: Outlook set signature.

I tried this sample yesterday but not working for my in my React/TypeScript Yeoman Generator Add-in. @Rick-Kirkham any sample in React?

@Rick-Kirkham simply I want OnMessageCompose get my signature html from localStorage and set is as signature.

@junaid042 The Office.js code is the same regardless of whether you are using React for your UI.

You use the Office.context.roamingSettings.set() method to set a signature as show in the sample file taskpane_main.js.

The file, taskpane_render.js, shows how to read and write from localStorage.

The file, autorunshared.js, shows how to create handlers for events. See the checkSignature method.

The 2 manifests files in the sample, manifest.xml and manifest.json, show how to connect the handler to the new message composed event.

I also recommend that you first read our documentation for event-based add-ins beginning here: Configure your Outlook add-in for event-based activation.

We use the issues in this repo to track problems with the documentation. Programming questions like this one should be raised on Stack Overflow. I'm going to close this now. If you have further questions, please raise them on Stack Overflow.
