Yes, using the DCOP interfaces.
Check "kdcop" (from kdebase) to see part of what is available through DCOP.
Since there are python bindings for DCOP, you can use python.
Check out http://www.xs4all.nl/~bsarempt/python/tutorial.html
(found this link on http://developer.kde.org/documentation/tutorials/index.html)
and, I just added to developer.kde.org the automation paper by Olaf Zanger,
it should shortly appear as http://developer.kde.org/documentation/tutorials/automation/index.html
