as several people have said, it's likely possible and pretty easy.
however, have you asked the hosting provider to do it for you? it's a
really common package that could benefit all the users on the system,
so they might just do it. if you already know the sysadmins, just ask
directly, or submit a ticket about it, being very nice and pointing
them to the webalizer website (though they've likely heard of it
already). worth a try, anyway.
