yes, it can be repaired if welded PROPERLY. Most likely it would be welded and then a reinforcing piece of steel would be used to overlap the welded crack for reinforcement. Don't let an inexperieced welder to this...a subframe crack is a high stress point and could create other problems if not repaired well.
