See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslcacertificatefile
and related directives.  That just configures the CAs from whom you
will accept client certificates.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslverifyclient is
the directive you need to send a "request certificate" directive to
the client.  In my experience "optional" can lead to a better user
experience, but not all clients (ahem, Safari 3.2, 4.0) understand it.

Sure it's possible, but it is entirely outside of the purview of
either your Web server or CAS.  We use certificates on a USB security
token device (eToken Pro), and the client software that integrates
with the browser is always the weakest link in the process.
