No, the .svn directory and its contents are essential to Subversion.
Maybe you could move the .svn directory(ies) out of the way, then
sync, then move them back so that you can commit. Of course, if this
synchronization includes more than just changes to individual files
(as in, includes additions or removals of files or directories) then
you would additionally need to execute the appropriate svn add or svn
rm commands, which would take more work to script, if that's what you
want.

Maybe you shouldn't be using an external sync process, but rather an
svn merge.
