Yes, it's possible
Just supose you have the images under /var/images/. This won't be
acceded by apache since it's out of documentroot.
You can set up some alias to /var/images
For example
alias /images/ /var/images/
The problem is, that most servers don't let users access
directories outside the DocumentRoot of the customers VirtualHost.
Also, if you can read that directory, you can create a path images in
your documentroot, and create a .htaccess file like this:
ErrorDocument 404 image.php
In image.php you catch the referrer with $_SERVER['http_referrer'] and
display the image sending the header img/jpeg

No.
