you can but not in the wp gui, (not that i know of) but you can using traditional form protection, why not just make a page instead, password protect that, using the interface which allows you to password protect directly from wp

also you can just add a link to the page to sidebar same thing

probably the most straightforward way would be to create members.yourblog.com, password protect that using standard .htaccess/.htpasswd setup... then use normal biller script to add remove users from .htpasswd file... then hire someone to write a quick wp plugin to redirect certain category to members.yourblog.com

something along the lines of ->
if(category_id=xxxx and host!='members.yourblog.com')
redirect to 'members.yourblog.com'
