Oh yes it is!  Or, at least, something very like it.  The node is in the
Emacs manual, and is called "Hideshow".  Briefly, enable it with "M-x
hs-minor-mode" (possibly from a hook).  Then you will have commands
available like :

  `C-c @ C-h'
       Hide the current block (`hs-hide-block').

  `C-c @ C-s'
       Show the current block (`hs-show-block').

  `C-c @ C-c'
       Either hide or show the current block (`hs-toggle-hiding')
