yes, you can do that with vertex keys. Vertex keys comes in two types. Normal vertex keys and Relative Vertex keys. Here’s an example of RVK from Dave Weese http://www.blendedplanet.com/tutors/bottle/bottle.htm

you dont jsut press i to lock and rotate… do you?

It’s rather complicated. I still haven’t got the hang of it.
