Should be.  You will have to program Port 6.3 to be digital I/O rather than
connect it to the ADC subsystem.  P6SEL.  You should study the pin
schematic but it looks like to me that if you want digital i/o you want
P6.3SEL set to a 1.

The schematic and description you were quoting before was from a tote sky
which while very close to a telosb does have some differences.   Also from
what I have seen there is a 2004 and a 2005 version of the TelosB.  The
2005 version doesn't have the resistor placement nor the connections to
GIOn.

Which adds to the confusion.
