Of course it is correct, being simply a noun and an adjective. How not? But the usage is unusual, so to speak, since the word staunch is most commonly seen with ally or supporter or a similar noun suggesting an allegiance not based in a marriage contract.

The word staunch used in this connection is an interesting one because it conveys the meanings of several other words: staunch here means dedicated; it means firm, steadfast, and it also means impenetrable, or impervious. So this would be a Catholic who is deeply interested in their faith, is strongly attached to it, and is disinclined to embrace dilutions or adulterations to the faith. Whether staunchness in a Catholic is something to admire or otherwise would seem to depend in part upon whether the Catholic possesses certain other important virtues. Is this staunch Catholic given to the vices of anger and intolerance? Or are they staunch in their beliefs, but also gentle, modest and meek? (Meekness being the virtue that inclines and empowers a person to moderate their anger.) A reference for some of this might be: http://www.newadvent.org/summa/3157.htm
