Yes.  I do it with wxPython, but nothing special is needed from SWIG. 
Just create create a .i files for each submodule that you want and then 
deploy them into a Python pacakge directory.  You'll need to ensure that 
there is only one copy of the SWIG runtime that is shared between all 
the related modules.
