Sure you can. This works:

$ svn co ^/branch1
$ svn ci -m "work on branch"
$ svn merge ^/trunk
$ svn ci -m "Catch up with trunk"

On trunk WC
$ svn merge --reintegrate ^/branch1
$ svn ci -m "Commit all work from branch1"
Committed revision 100

Back on branch1
$ svn merge --record-only -r100 ^/trunk
$ svn ci -m "Mark r100 as merged"

$ svn ci -m "More work on branch"
$ svn merge ^/trunk
$ svn ci -m "Catch back up with trunk"

Back on trunk

$ svn merge --reintegrate ^/branch1
$ svn ci -m "Commit all work from branch1"
Committed revision 200

Lather. rinse. repeat.
