Is it possible to produce a social network graph (like the one shown below) in Illustrator? I can see it's not an option under the graph tool, but is there a plug-in available?

No, Illustrator does not do that.
You might try if the plugin Datylon does it, but I don't think so.
d3.js should be able to.

Here are some examples similar to yours.

All were generated using a link which is now gone.

I remember playing with it back in the year 2006.
At the end, it generated a jpeg, not vector.

kphotopage, the second link seems to be dead.
I thought it would be interesting to see the tool as well.

KShinabery212, I did state that second link was gone.
My notes from long ago.
Click on that link, use any website and it generates those nice graphics.
Fun to play with.
