Am wanting to set up a site with some form of subscription capability, where the user can "subscribe" to a selection of categories/pages available within the site's content.
Is this possible, and how would it be done?

It certainly is possible.
If you take a look at the forum code, you can see how subscribing to topics is organised (and forum posts are pretty much pages).
It would then be a matter of sending an email to a user whenever a page within a category is edited or created.
