Yes why not, I'am on RHEL 3
I receive another answer that say:

But how can I do this in a kickstart file during installation.

if you have a "modern" linux distribution, I would direct you to have a
look at udev. You can write identification rules which assign static
labels in /dev to your devices based on serial id's, etc.
But beware, writing udev rules requires a virgin and at least two dead
chickens, so I would either start using some device-independant layer
like lvm / fs labels or forget about this issue.
