Depending on your setup, yes it can be. The "Alias" directives are
there so that when you type in "http://www.mysite.com/phpmyadmin";
Apache will redirect the request to "/usr/share/phpmyadmin".

What this does is allow you to keep scripts outside of a website's
directory structure. I use them with PHPMyAdmin to primarily prevent
tampering by my various users but it also makes it easier to
update/patch the app(s) when needed.
