Sure it is, to a degree. Use a stick with a twist handle or rudder pedals and you have rudder control, all it does is move the tail rudder left or right. Aerodynamics and physics modelling determine wether it is modelled correct or not in a flight sim. Most modern fighter jets only use manual rudder at low speeds anyway, at faster speeds it is controlled by the fly-by-wire system.
