I don't think so, however I didn't see your C# code, but you can use the simplified connection:
CrmConnection crmConnection = CrmConnection.Parse("Url=https://XXX.crm.dynamics.com; Username=user@domain.onmicrosoft.com; Password=passwordhere;"); OrganizationService service = new OrganizationService(crmConnection);
and take the string from the app.config using the ConfigurationManager class.
