Sure they do... check out svn help mv:

  SRC and DST can both be working copy (WC) paths or URLs:
    WC -> WC: move and schedule for addition (with history)
    URL -> URL: complete server-side rename.
  All the SRCs must be of the same type.

The mv will retain all the history.

If you are on windows you can use the TortoiseSVN repo browser. It makes stuff like this very easy.
