No, because the content you want to move shall go into the directory
that you want to move away.

you need to do it in at least three steps:
1. svn mv repo_location_url/tags/some_tag \
                repo_location_url/tags/some_tag_old

2. svn mkdir repo_location_url/tags/some_tag

3. svn mv repo_location_url/tags/some_tag_old \
                repo_location_url/tags/some_tag/ProjectWeb

ciao
