It is, and depending on the video card and driver you are using, should
be relatively simple. 

Open the "System" main menu, then go to Preferences --> Hardware -->
Screen Resolution.  From there you can choose the Rotation of your
choice. 

I don't know for sure which video card/driver combinations support it
and which do not; but my testing is successful with my own workstation
(G965 video using the current xorg-x11-drv-intel stack).

Alternatively, you can use the 'xrandr' tool from the command-line if
you prefer that method. Check it's documentation for more details
(`xrandr --help` or `man xrandr` from the terminal).

Hope that helps.
