Configure forms authentication without Web.Config

Question

Scenario

---

I configured the MVC application to use Forms authentication in the traditional way.

<authentication mode="Forms">
  <forms cookieless="UseCookies" slidingExpiration="true" timeout="1">
  </forms>
</authentication>

However, I allow the client to choose the authentication method of their web application (URL Token / Cookie), as well as how long their application session should last until the expiration (Timeout)

Question

---

Is there any way to do this with code? I just saw implementations of this via web.config?

I would like to read the settings from the database and apply them in Global.asax -> OnApplicationStart ()
