    yes, it's possible. you can use RewriteCond & the HTTP_USER_AGENT environmental variable.

    you'd need a full list of feed readers though...

    not to mention it could screw up syndication.

    a better way to do it may be to redirect if the user is coming from google.

    or block them with robots.txt
