Sort of. Have the user run the browser as a different user. On Windows,
SHIFT+Right click on the IE icon. This will show a "Run as different User"
run as the user in question or a local account on the machine that does
not have a kerberos principal.

If no Kerberos tickets are available, IE's "Windows Integrated Authentication"
may then prompt for a user and password.


On Linux, set a different KRB5CCNAME environment variable to point at
a different or not existent Kerberos ticket cache before starting
the browser.
