It is possible. One way you can do it is to search for this:
sword @source:cv
(cv is the code for Cleasby/Vigfusson; bt is Bosworth/Toller, etc.)
Or, you can do a search, then click on a word in the entry. A range of more limited searches will be given.
I took away the "Advanced Searches" page because it looked from the server logs as though hardly anybody used it, but I can put it back if there's general interest.
