The short answer is no, you can't lock the orientation AFAIK. What you can do is to apply a webkitTransform rotate and translate to put the content of a div back the way you want it when the iPhone orientation changes.
Remember that the width and height of the visible window change when rotating as well so your content has to be designed to look good in both views. As the iPhone is rotated, the O/S will start the adjustment and then onorientationchange will fire so you can snap it back to the fixed view - a bit ugly. If there are any events that fire earlier which would allow hiding and restoring, I'd love to hear about them. As onorientationchange doesn't fire in a saved to home page webapp, you also need a timer to check for the width vs height change.
