Yes, it is possible. You can join your computer to the Windows Small Business Server 2008 network by following the link given below:

Can you tell me what is the proper way to do this thing? I can understand that you can add a backup domain controller as long as the primary FSMO roles stay on the SBS 2008 Server. I dont know from where to start.

I am simply asking a question about how to install SBS 2008 in an existing Active Directory domain, I have found a KB article from MS for SBS 2003 but not for 2008. Is this the same procedure, check the below link:
