Following is the Honda Customer Service recommendation:

Standard shift model: yes, it can be. Leave transmission in neutral - emergency brake off - leave the steering wheel in the unlocked position (so that the front wheels can follow the tow vehicle in corners) - ascertain that all interior accessories are turned off (reading lights - radio - circulating fan, etc).

Automatic transmission: Start engine and move the shift lever through all positions, momentarily pausing in each position - finish by leaving lever in neutral - turn engine off - emergency brake off - leave the steering wheel in the unlocked position - ascertain that all interior accessories are truned off. The vehicle can then be towed for a 500 mile distance, after which the entire routine must be repeated. Since 500 miles is usually greater than most people will travel in one days time, this can be a once-daily operation prior to starting the next leg of your trip. Every 500 miles the transmission fluid must be circulated through the transmission to keep the seals and bearings lubricated.
