Yes it is using a program called ypops. You can download and install ypops free from the ypops website. Once ypops is installed you can then to to outlook and add a new account for your yahoo email address enter [email protected] and for the incoming mail sever enter 127.0.0.1 for the outgoing mail server also enter 127.0.0.1 the outgoing server requires authentication. Also increase the server timeout to long 10 minutes.
If you don't have a premium Yahoo mail account, the short answer is no. However, there is a work around using a program called YPOPs. More information is here. Please let me know if this was helpful.

Troubleshooting instructions.
If you followed the above configuration steps, you should be all
set. However, if you cannot send or receive mail with your email
client, try the following tips.
The Yahoo! Mail SMTP server requires authentication. Make sure you have enabled SMTP authentication. To turn this setting on: From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts."
Select the "Mail" tab.
Double-click the account labeled "plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com."
Select the "Servers" tab.
Check the box next to "My Server Requires Authentication."
Click "OK."
To control deletion of messages from the Yahoo! Mail Server: From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts."
Select the "Mail" tab.
Double-click the account labeled "plus.pop.mail.yahoo.com."
Select the "Advanced" tab.
In the Delivery section at the bottom of the window, check "Leave a
copy of messages on server" if you want to save your Yahoo! Mail
messages on the Yahoo! Mail server as well as on your local computer.
Do not check this box if you want your messages to be deleted from the
Yahoo! Mail server once you have received them in Outlook Express.
We strongly recommend that you enable SSL for both POP and SMTP, as
detailed in the above instructions. This will ensure that your Yahoo!
ID, password and email messages are transmitted securely between your
mail client and the Yahoo! servers. However, if you choose to not use
SSL for SMTP, your email client will likely default the SMTP port to
25. If your ISP blocks port 25 or if you're unable to send email, then
you will need to use port 587 when sending via Yahoo!'s SMTP server. To
make this change, please follow the directions below:From the "Tools" menu, select "Accounts"
Select your Yahoo! POP account and click on the "Properties" button
Click on the "Advanced" tab
Next to "Outgoing server (SMTP), change port 25 to 587
Click "Apply", then click "OK" and "Close"
