Sure.

Identify all files involved in a given network configuration, which means 
basically:
/etc/sysconfig/network
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
/etc/hosts
/etc/resolv.conf
And potentially others:
/etc/exports
/etc/rcx.d
etc...

Just rename them to name.foo, where name is original file name, and foo is 
your profile name. Then use attached script to switch from a given profile to 
another.

draknet also had limited support for different network profiles, but i don't 
know current state.
