Yes, you can, but not with the usual CVS client. Using the web interface to the CVS repository, you can access pages such as <http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/grep/grep/src/search.c> and click on a link such as "1.35" with URL <http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/grep/grep/src/search.c?rev=1.35> to get the actual source file for this latest version. If you want to download more than one file, doing so manually through the CVS web interface can rapidly become annoying. You can then consider using a client program such as CVSGrab (<http://cvsgrab.sourceforge.net/>) that will automate this process for you.
