In Mac OS (7/8/9), yes. In 10.x, no -- the X Finder is stupid, so you can't.

Hmm... You SURE about that, boo? Seems to work for me:
tell application "Finder"
set thePos to position of disk 1
end tell
-->{ 240, 39 }
also:
tell application "Finder"
set position of disk 1 to { 200, 100}
end tell
The only issue with setting the icon position is that the Finder takes a
while to notice, even if you issue an 'update' command.
