Not if you want to commit your changes back to the online repository.
Subversion falls into the category of centralised version control
systems (CVCS) where there is a single server hosting the repo. Others
in this category are CVS, ClearCase and Perforce. If you want a local
repository you need to look instead at distributed version control
(DVCS) such as git, mercurial or bazaar.
