Yes it is possible. Go to the manpage for ifconfig and look for the alias command.

Here is an example:
Define IP address to use with alias name to /etc/hosts
Example: 10.0.4.217 alias1
Then:
# ifconfig ee0 alias alias1 netmask 255.255.0.0
Replace "ee0" with your interface name.
If you want to make it permanent edit /etc/inet.local and add this line.

And maybe you find some time to assign points to peaple that helped you in the past.
