No, this is not a general feature of Kerberos implementations. It may be
that Active Directory has support for this, however. Active Directory has
some additional delegation control features that are not implemented in
other versions of Kerberos. I don't know if you need to use Microsoft's
Kerberos implementation on the client for this as well, if so.
