You should be able to password protect any software program on your computer.

In Linux, the solution could be a simple zenity and/or bash hack to encrypt + decrypt your user config and data for said software program with gpg or something. You could provide your passphrase with zenity or another utility for the [de]crypting. Upon exit the user config and data would be re-encrypted. Or something. I have no idea.
