Is it possible to present a PDF form online and have the completed form returned in an encrypted, secure format, other than writing each field to a database? We'd like for the user to be able to complete the online form then have the submission send it back via email as an encrypted file.

Good Question!! I've thought about using an SSL connection before but I don't think that it's supported by Acrobat, and I don't know, or have heard of anyone who's tried it. The HTTP Request/Response for a form submision is handled by Acrobat/Reader, not the browser. So Acrobat is the tool that has to support it.
Besides, the question was about encrypting a PDF for email, and that can only be done in Acrobat Pro/Std.

Wouldn't an HTTP POST to an SSL-enabled server accomplish the same? Your fields would come back as standard HTTP form fields over a secure connection.
