Not with SSL certs anyway.

At least not as long as your browser trusts hundreds of CA's, including shady ones such as Comodo[1] who will issue fake certs to any name (Google, Skype, etc.).

The fact that Comodo is occasionally scammed (a headline-generating event) does not prove that they add no level of identity authentication.

With an email hostmaster/webmaster@example.com and/or a DNS record. EV certs require more, but DV certs have their identities verified automatically in seconds.
