Sorta.

At the least, I think you'd have to use:

UseModMimePathInfo on

This allows the mod_mime filters/handlers to kick in. Otherwise, it'll
ignore it and none of your directives will be in effect. svn:mime-type
only sets the CT, but doesn't allow the filters to be inserted based on the
filename.

I think there used to be a bug in mapping the repository to /, but ISTR
that might be fixed. It shouldn't be difficult to do so.

<Location />
  SVNPath /path/to/repos
</Location>

The other comment is that you'd need another <Location> block to actually
commit to. ModMimeUsePathInfo doesn't play well with DAV or DeltaV.
