Yes you can.
Make sure you have advanced security turned on.
Create a Domain security context in the advanced security, and use this:
<cfauthenticate
securitycontext = "contextname"
username = "#form.username#"
password = "#form.password#">
tag.
To check, <cfoutput>#isauthenticated(contextname)#</cfoutput>
I've done this and have made it work.
This tag will also work with LDAP, NDS, AD, etc...

I'm not sure that you can, It would kind of defeat the purpose of NT
security if CF could access the password, then in theory some one could
write a page to record everyone's password that hits their page.
