Yes, you can do this. If you run the standalone svnserve it will read user
information from a file. If you use the Apache 2 WebDAV module you can use
any authentication supported by Apache (for which MySQL authentication is
also available). The Subversion book
(http://svnbook.red-bean.com/svnbook/ch06s04.html#svn-ch-6-sect-4.3)
explains it in more detail...
