Yes it's very possible. :-)  You may want to check out FreeRadius 
(http://www.freeradius.org/).  It is a free radius server which is what 
I think you are looking for.  I will state that you need to take some 
time to read up on this a little bit as it can be irritating to set up 
a radius server if you are not familiar with all the settings.  I did 
this for my D-link AP for fun then went back to wep for reasons I don't 
remember.  Ohh, FreeRadius has a port, so you can start there. :-)  
It's a popular radius server for *nix.  A medium-sized datacenter I 
worked at used it for all communications gear and dial-up access.  
Anyways, good luck sir.
