Sort of. bzr can push/pull to/from SVN repositories. One way I find that
useful is that I have an SVN repository with some particular web app
that I'm working on. Whenever I'm going to be offline, I simply 'bzr
branch' the repository (or 'bzr pull' if I've already branched it, which
saves bandwidth), then do all the usual 'bzr commit' and stuff while
offline. Then, when I'm hooked up to the tubes once again, I simply do
'bzr push' and that'll push all the local commits I've made to the SVN
repository.

However, I'm not sure if you can use SVN to commit to a bzr repository.
You _may_ be able to branch it with SVN, then run a 'bzr merge' to get
the changes back in, but I don't think that would be a very fluid process.

No, if you click on the headings on the left hand side (one such heading
is "Choose lossless VCS tools if you have that luxury") you'll find the
blog post.
