I wanted to know if an OOo document (e.g. a Writer .odt document) can be

Absolutely, but Subversion will treat the document as a picture [or
any other binary file]. IOW, you will retain all prior versions of the
document, but won't be able to merge differences between two versions of
a document.
Yes. This development is to solve that problem:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/odfsvn/
ODF files are plain text (xml) files simply zipped up.
The project aims to create a dynamic zip/unzip process as files are
checked in/out of subversion thereby enabling full version control of
the *contents* of the odf files - not just a blob.
