Yes. You simply specify --prefix=/nonexistent at configuration time.
At installation time you use "make install DESTDIR=/tmp/destdir" and
then move the installed files from /tmp/destdir/nonexistent to
/usr/local or wherever you want to have them.

But you should know that by doing this you push the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
problem back to the user (unless you already deal with it in some
way).
