Hello
It probably can, with some tweaking. Try something like this:

$ echo 'wlan0proto="disabled"' >>/etc/settings/network
$ hotplug
$ echo 'wlan0_ssid="xxxxx"' >>/etc/settings/network
$ echo 'wlan0proto="dynamic"' >>/etc/settings/network
$ hotplug

The file /etc/settings/network is a runtime copy of the /boot/settings/network 
it's refreshed every boot.
