No; the names of these records are fixed by the standards. You can
hand-configure the server names in krb5.conf instead of using DNS SRV
records. However, even then, your Kerberos realm should not have the same
name as a Windows domain -- that's essentially having two realms with the
same name, which will not work out well.
