This is possible. It's even possible to install within a VM. Details here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Getting_started_with_OpenStack_EPEL

Note the upstream OpenStack docs are also in the process of
being updated with Centos specific information.
It would be preferable to use those docs if possible,
and cross reference with the link above.
The upstream docs are available as a review commit at present:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/7431/
Anne (CC'd) may have a preview pdf available for easier consumption.

cheers,
Pádraig.
