You can most definitely add a view in your SSAS DSV. You can select views or tables in the object chooser dialog box. You can also write a named query. Many people advise that you should always use views in your DSV for your cube. It creates a layer between the cube and the physical tables.
Another approach is to use the existing cube as a source for a Power Pivot model and filter the dates in the data model in Excel and then provide that model/Excel file to your users.
