Not as such. You can map subversion.somedomain (don't use localhost as a top
level domain) to the IP address 192.168.1.11. Then you could create a
<virtualhost> entry that contains the appropriate configuration:

NameVirtualHost 192.168.1.11
<VirtualHost 192.168.1.11>
   ServerName subversion.somedomain
   <Location />
     DAV svn
     SVNPath /absolute/path/to/svn/trunk
   </Location>
</VirtualHost>

something like that (not tested). FWIW, I use .internal as my fake TLD. No I
cannot tell you the appropriate BIND config lines to enable this; I have long
since switched to tinydns and have helpfully forgotten the baroque BIND file
notation.
