Yes, it's possible, and no, it's fairly easy to configure.  You want:

FEATURE(redirect)

...if using sendmail, which does:

redirect        Reject all mail addressed to "address.REDIRECT" with
                 a ``551 User has moved; please try <address>'' message.
                 If this is set, you can alias people who have left
                 to their new address with ".REDIRECT" appended.
