Yes you can, but I wouldn't recommend such an approach. Try using a properties file instead:

http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/environment/properties.html

or if you have an other format (other than key-value based) for you configuration file, just use java's io package to manipulate the data:

Good luck.
