If you write your own svn client and the command you execute gets the
conflict, then yes.

But if you're using TSVN, it depends which command produced the
conflict. Most commands generate the conflicted files with names that
have the revision number in its name (file.ext.rXXX).

Have a look at our diff-scripts which do the same for diffing and/or
resolving conflicts with office docs:
http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/svn/tortoisesvn/trunk/contrib/other/diff-scripts
(username: guest, leave password empty)

the "merge-*" script handle conflicts of those files.

You can then configure TSVN to use your own scripts, depending on the
file extension of your files.

And if you have the script finished and working, you could send it to us
so we can include it with TSVN...
