You can't use a client-side certificate as user authentication to the
backend server no. But in theory can it be used for identification
purposes to Squid, and Squid can even provide it's own client-side
certificate for authenticating Squid to the backend server.

I say in theory above about client side certificate authentication to
Squid as the implementation of certificate validation isn't fully
finished and some work remains.
