Yes, it is possible to put text on top of an image using CSS. One way to do so is to use absolute positioning:

Example
Text on top of image

Source code for this example
Text on top of image

How it works

 * The image is 300px in width, as specified by the wikitext.
 * The text I want to put on top of the image is in the span tag.
 * tells it that I want to use absolute positioning.
 * positions it at (x, y) = (50, 120) with respect to whatever the container is.
 * defines the container.
