Short answer - yes. The general unconstitutional condition, requiring one to give up one right (of association, not to mention privacy) to exercise another (the right to contract, oh, and under the 14th, the "civil" right to "equal protection") has already been decided. I forget the more important case names, as there are many, but anybody who tries a little can find them. [Well, just out of curiosity, I did just now, and came up with a pretty good collection of them in essay form]:

Thanks David, for giving me a reason to do a little footwork which, I hope, may benefit somebody else.
