Yes.  To set read/write by all, for a folder:
err = fn SetOSXPermissions( fSpec, &O777 )

To set read/write by all, for a file:
err = fn SetOSXPermissions( fSpec, &O666 )

A folder has to have the low-order bit set in each octal digit (octal 
777) whereas for a file that bit must be clear (octal 666).
