I haven't used any of this, but it sure looks like it's possible.  
The Handbook section on Samba mentions winbindd(8).

You'll need Samba installed, and you will need to make sure the knobs
for LDAP and winbind, at least, are enabled.

That should be enough of a pointer for you to find the documentation.
