If your question was truly "allow ME to use my ubikeys?" (emphasis mine)
then you can do that since Firefox 57, by changing some internal prefs.

If you question was more the "support this standard fully" part that's a
trick question. U2F is not a standard and even members of the group that
pushed it have implemented some things incompatibly (due to ambiguities in
the spec). The actual standard that grew out of it, Web Authentication,
seems pretty stable but it's not official yet.  The published "Working
Draft (https://www.w3.org/TR/webauthn/) was updated in December, and the
Editors Draft has updates even more recent.

This spec flux also means that the answer to the first possible question
varies because different sites have implemented U2F based on different
versions of the spec so Firefox may not work even though both site and
browser nominally support it.
