Yes, the AirPort card uses a fairly standard antenna connector.

You can use the Orinoco Range Extender Antenna for example.

The biggest issue you may have is in routing the antenna cable through the case to the external antenna itself.

Are you asking about the airport card inside a Apple Base station or the airport card inside an iBook/Powerbook?
