Yes.
TSVN even shows (correctly) that the file has been 'replaced' when I'm
committing - only it cannot do file replacements itself, as things
currently stand.

CLI test (Unix), assuming you're in a WC and it contains a file README:
$ svn rm README
$ touch README
$ svn add README
$ svn st

... shows 'R' for 'R'eplaced.

CLI test (Windows), assuming you're in a WC and it contains a file README:

I'm not sure whether the CLI stuff made it any clearer for you, but
there you go :-)
