That depends on how you desire it to function.

One could easily archive a tree of directories and files with all its
structure intact, and submit that to DSpace.  Archive formats such as
Zip are supported, in that they are not damaged by DSpace ingestion or
retrieval.  But DSpace won't look inside an archive Bitstream; the
user would have to retrieve it as-is and unpack it locally to navigate
within it.
