Yes! The sign for 'eager' is also commonly used to mean 'enthusiastic,' 'anxious' (in a positive way), or 'excited anticipation.' The exact meaning depends heavily on the context of your sentence and your facial expression.
The motion should be brisk and energetic. Usually, two to three quick back-and-forth rubs are perfect. If you do it too slowly, it might look like you are just cold!
Your hands should be generally flat, like standard 'B' hands, but they don't need to be rigidly stiff. A natural, relaxed flat handshape works best as you rub your palms together.
