It is not possible to do this with Subversion, and therefore it is also not
possible to do it with Subclipse. There is a product called SVK that can
let you do stuff like this. It is built on top of Subversion, but it is
essentially another version control tool and it does not have any GUI
interfaces or Eclipse integration. But it would allow you to maintain a
local repository that you mirror with a central repository. You have to use
branches and merging a lot to use it, but they provide some nice command
line tools for doing this.

If you feel comfortable using a command line for everything, it could be an
option for you.
