Yes, it is possible. You can create a cronjob to delete the log files on your required interval of time.

Another solution is the 'logrotattion' which will help you manage your logs in a better way.

Create new 'alfresco-logs' file at /etc/logrotate.d/ with the following content inside

/opt/<Alfresco-home>/tomcat/logs/catalina.out {
copytruncate
daily
compress
rotate 5
missingok
size 50M
}

Note: Change the path of Alfresco home in the above code.
