Yes. There are a few ways to go about it as I understand it. The
most important question is what platform your Subversion server is
running on.

From Linux, we've had success using an NTLM auth module for Apache2 to
allow authentication against Windows domain controllers. Here's the
link: http://modntlm.sourceforge.net/

If you search the list archives I think you'll find some other
solutions involving mod_auth_smb (?)

I'll also mention that since the svn clients do their authentication
via BasicAuth, it's a good idea to have connections to the repos be
protected via SSL.
