Yes you can. You just need to setup your server with HTTPs and use an SSL certificate. There is even in 
o.e.r.communication.core a class SSLConfiguration which allows you to configure cacerts for clients. That is a 
certifacte server with servers you trust as a client.

I guess Stefan could shed some more light on the SSLConfiguraation thing. I am not sure if also allows client 
certificates (that is a client has a certificate that a server has to trust) but client certificates are not that 
common. (browsers for example allways only use server certifacats).

But that server certifact use case should work out of the box.
