Not really, unless you can map your users to the fixed set of (site independent) roles (none, guest, user, admin) baked into spring surf.

These roles are wired into various classes (i.e. org.springframework.extensions.surf.mvc.PageView,org.springframework.extensions.webscripts.connector.User,org.springframework.extensions.webscripts.Description).

If you can map your users to these roles, just set the authentication value accordingly in the pages xml descriptor.

For example: To see the document-library, share requires you to be logged in, and hence, in site-data/pages/documentlibrary.xml it reads <authentication>user</authentication>.

If you cannot map your users in this way, things can get a bit messy.
