is there a way to restrict access to a website, running Apache via cPanel, using SSL (like CTLs on IIS/Windows)?
I.E, the user has to have an ssl certificate installed/issued to be able to access the site.

This is certainly possible, through the SSLRequire directive. The most trivial setup is to formulate
%{SSL_CLIENT_VERIFY} eq "SUCCESS". This also requires settting SSLVerifyClient and SSLCACertificatePath, as well as to install the trusted CA certificates.
