If specified, login is allowed only for user names that match one of the patterns. `*' and `?' can be used as wildcards in the patterns. Only user names are valid; a numerical user ID is not recognized. By default, login is allowed for all users. If the pattern takes the form USER at HOST then USER and HOST are separately checked, restricting logins to particular users from particular hosts. So wild cards can be used although it doesn't specifically state they can be used with the HOST part. Try it and see, my guess is it will work.
