Yes, at least for IPv4. There is absolutely no support from the GUI, but you 
can manually install /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ethX:Y. For 
example, I have an ifcfg-eth1 and an ifcfg-eth1:1, with a second IP address. 
Just copy ifcfg-ethX to ifcfg-ethX:1, and stick in an additional IP address.
