[Religious dispute warning...]

No, svn support only supports copies. However, if you design your 
directory tree carefully, and exercise discipline in how you use it, you 
can maybe agree with your co-workers as to which copies are tags, which 
copies are branches, and which copies are actually copies.

Remember, your directory tree should also reflect the organization of 
your source code.
