Yes, but it's not a simple answer and can vary depending on your requirements.

  • place it on a reference plane set to the height desired.
  • add parameters to the light to adjust the pendent length
  • adjust the pendent length to meet the ceiling.
    • may need to add a angle parameter to rotate the escutcheon to the angle of the ceiling.

The easiest way is use two families:

- Mounting plate: face based family, hosted by the sloped ceiling

- Pendent light sans the mounting plate: work plane based, always vertical, hosted by the bottom of the mounting plate

Maybe use a Ceiling-Hosted Family (with "Always Vertical" checked) instead of a Face-Based Family.  There's plenty of them out there to choose from.  BIMObject.com is a good place to find a bunch, FWIW.
