If I get what you are asking, yes, but as Jamie mentioned, it's often 
worthwhile not wandering too far from your distros defaults :)

If you have 

<Directory />
        Options FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride None
        Order deny,allow
        Deny from all
 </Directory>

then each virtual host will need to have 
        AllowOverride AuthConfig
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
in the relevant directory sections for the virtual host. Without these 
parameters, the config from the / directory will apply.

Does that make sense? If I'm not explaining it well, there is a pretty good 
explanation of how Directory works at 
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html.en#directory
