Yes, no problem for me.
1. Create database for ntop:
mysqladmin create 'ntopdb'
2.  (Optional  step) add MySQL user 'ntop' and assign proper rights to
the 'ntopdb'
3. Create tables using ntop/database/mySQLdefs.txt
mysql -u ntop ntopdb < ntop/database/mySQLdefs.txt
4. Now run dbclient and ntop with right arguments.
This is how my startup script looks like:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/perl /usr/local/bin/mySQLserver.pl &
/usr/local/bin/ntop -u ntop /b localhost:4000 -N -d
