It should be.  First of all, though, for htdig to recognize the document
properly as a PDF, it will need to receive a Content-Type header of
application/pdf.  To allow htdig to get around the authentication in
your PHP script, you may want to try Miles Thompson's suggestions in
this message:

htdig only handles HTTP Basic authentication, as specified in .htaccess
files.
