Is it at all possible to add a dock to a second monitor on Mac OS X? If so, how?

No.At least not native. OS X ties the menu bar and dock to one "main" monitor and uses the second as secondary displays. | |||||

Try DragThing. I haven't used it myself in a long time, but back when I did, it could create docks with almost any layout and function you wanted. It's not exactly the Mac OS X Dock in the sense of having minimized windows and so on, but it may serve your needs. | |||

If you are not too picky with the task bar being on the far right, I find setting the "position on screen" to "right" will move the dock to the second screen, WAY over to the right of my workspace. Not a BIG deal for me, some I imagine would get annoyed I would guess. For me I use the dock mostly for monitoring what my Mac is up to and use a mouse button to jump between apps. Is an option. Hope it helps! | |||

Dock-It gives you a second configurable dock. Not as intuitive as the Mac doc, but once you've added your items via the interface, you have a hiding dock. | |||

Secondbar for a second menu bar and Yahoo widget engine with WidgDock for a second customizable dock. I love both apps – they work perfectly and are free. | ||||
