Yes. Just set up the proper remotes in the config files (same as w/
non-bare repos). The main problem for you might be that the hub-repo's
remotes wont show up as remotes in it's clones - that's because per
default only remote's refs/heads/* namespace is mapped into local's
refs/remotes/*.
Most convenient would probably doing this in the local hub repo.
Add a proper fetch statement in the upstream remote's config section.
Suppose the upstream's remote name is "origin":
[remote "origin"]
url = ...
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/heads/origin/*
fetch = +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/origin/*
This will make the upstream's heads and tags as they were pushed
to the hub repo directly, but with the "origin/" prefix.

What does the refs/HEAD file tell in the local mirror repo ?
