Looks like the mirror sites still have the 5.3 updates at (for x86):
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.3/updates/i386/RPMS/
so I imagine you could manually edit the
/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo file and put "5.3" in there explicitly.
Usually, though, old versions like 5.3 are eventually removed from the
regular mirror servers and moved to the "vault" site, where you'd be
able to access it via:
http://vault.centos.org/5.3/
once it's moved there (not populated at present).
