Yes.  You can do it using standard UNIX permissions & groups.  Everybody
should be able to write the CVSROOT/history file as well.  If you have
any directories you wish to be read-only to one company and writable by
the other you will need to set the LockDir in CVSROOT/config to something
writable by everyone from both companies.  Look up the config admin file
in the Cederqvist.
