Nope... not really. You have a few options..

1. Use a feature branch on the official server. When your done with your work merge it to the main folder path.

2. Create a diff of your changes, apply it to a WC checkout from the official server and commit it.

3. Use a distributed 3rd part version of svn. I think there is one called silkSVN.

4. You can use Git locally. It will allow you to create local branches, do local commits, etc. Then when you are ready you can push whatever you want to svn using the git-svn commant.

5. Move 100% to a distirbuted source control like Git or Mercurrial.
