Yes. In Terminal, you can use the "open" command to open files, URLs, or applications.
## launches a specific application
## (maybe can give URL or file as argument?)
$ open /Applications/Safari.app
## goes to www.oreillynet.com
## in your preferred browser
$ open http://oreillynet.com/
## opens /Documents/MyFile.txt in your home dir
## using default text editor
$ open ~/Documents/MyFile.txt
## opens your Pictures folder in Finder
open ~/Pictures
Pretty easy, huh? Basically, the 'open' command simulates what you'd normally do with a double-click or CMD+O.
