Yes, when you are referring to callously manipulating someone.

I've heard people say I'm playing (such and such) like a (usually a musical instrument) harp, fiddle, etc.

It would make more sense to me to say..."I'm playing_____ like a game of cards" But Ive always heard it as "I'm playing_____ like a fiddle"

If you read Eaton's answers to other questions you can see why that doesn't make sense to him.
But you're right.......That's the way the saying goes.

Rrrrrrrrrrrright
Now - when or where do you want to use this? It depends on the context. You may sound condescending. Be careful though..........
