Yes, there's an "UEFI environment only" option that only installs m1n1+u-boot (not Linux), OpenBSD/arm64 uses the EFI implementation provided by u-boot.

Mark Kettenis' from the OpenBSD project is responsible for upstreaming Apple M1 support for u-boot, and has been collaborating with the Asahi Linux team.
