Are Category or Tag Archive Pages Possible?

This is absolutely possible. By default, the category archive page will be at domain.com/category/the_category. The file that is typically used for this rendering is category.php, which is located in your theme directory.

To remove the /category/ part, so that your category archives are at domain.com/the_category, you can use the SEO Ultimate plugin. After installing the plugin, go to “Permalink Tweaker” and check the first box.
