Yes. Use a "normal" tension set will get you high tension . . possibly too high, but a low tension set should work well.
Southcoast's website has TONS of info, and of course recommendations for their sets in that tuning.

A string set like South Coast's LML-NW is like medium-light tension and can be tuned to ADF#B without any extra stress on the instrument. In fact, I have just done that on one of my ukes with that exact set of strings.

As others have said, either a lighter gauged set or one that's listed as D TUNING will work fine on a tenor.
