Yes

Go to http://www.atomiksoftware.com/fire-up/ and have a read.

I think there are other apps like this that are free but this one is cross platform. I got it and it works very well. Opens files, should think it'll open applications too.

You might want to try going down the 'fscommand' route if you got time. I think this type of script is used for this kind of thing.

Good luck!
