Sure. Why not?  Just create the 2 Software raid partitions of whatever
size (I usually do one at a time so I don't forget which partition I
want going where), then click the software raid button and create the /
partition.  Voila!

I do this for EVERY partition on my boxes that lack hardware RAID cards.
