Yes you can configure custom repositories as described in the Gradle documentation. Keep in mind jcenter is maven repository type. If you want to provide a custom maven repository you can define its URL the following way:

repositories {
    maven {
        url "http://repo.mycompany.com/maven2"
    }
}

Alternatives to jcenter are described in the Gradle documentation as well, like: mavenCentral(). Also this and this similar answers illustrates how to achieve the expected behavior.
