Sure. Just get a working copy and move stuff.
svn checkout $REPO/project_A
cd project_a
svn mkdir trunk branches tags
for each $ITEM in the current directory other than trunk branches
tags testProgram
svn mv $ITEM trunk
end for each
svn mkdir trunk/examples
svn mv testProgram trunk/examples
* in one of your examples you showed testProgram should be under
examples
svn commit -m "reorganizing project"
Anyone who has existing working copies of project_A will probably
want to "svn switch" these to project_A/trunk.
