AFAIK, no, not if your are relying on Apache's per-directory configuration
mechanism (which you are). You can either move those files that you want
to be available to a publicly accessible directory, or use PHP's http
authentication mechanism on only those files that you do want to keep
private (http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.http-auth.php).
