As the title states, is it possible without creating a new Apple ID? If so, how? TIA
How do you go about creating an alias?
Log in to iCloud.com.
Click Mail.
Click the cog icon in the upper right.
Click Preference, then @addresses tab / button
On the lower left "Add an alias" (you can have up to 3).
Hope that helps!
Just did it. Awesome! It worked

I love this. I have now made iCloud my main email account. Just transferred the thousands of emails I had from Gmail. Plus, no advertising (yet)!
...but do you use your alias account as your 'main' email address? If yes, when sending emails from your iOS devices, you have to always select that email address to send from, no?
The only workaround I found was on the Apple support forums.
Use the OTHER option instead of iCloud or MobileMe. Use the alias as the email address. Incoming mail server is mail.me.com. User name and password is your primary acct name. Outgoing server is smtp.mail.com.
This will allow you to send mail from alias. You will continue to receive mail for all aliases and the primary.[/I]
