Yes, that's possible with KDE's config and KIOSK framework. To learn more
about KDE's config framework visit:
http://www.kde.org/areas/sysadmin/fsh.php
and
http://www.kde.org/areas/sysadmin/config_file.php

To learn more about KIOSK, see the KIOSK README on
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/other/index.html

For specific question you can subscribe to the kde-kiosk at kde.org mailinglist.
The archives at http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-kiosk&r=1&w=2 may also be of
interest to you.

We are still a bit short on GUI tools for the task so for the time being you 
will need to edit the config files by hand.

Cheers,
Waldo
