It depends on what you mean by "it."  If you mean kinit, I don't believe
it has support for this.  If you mean something else, it depends on the
application.  For example, you can configure my pam-krb5 PAM module to do
this.

I believe MIT Kerberos only lets you define a single default realm, which
is the realm used for authentication if no realm is specified in the
principal name.  (However, you can do things with server referrals.)
