Sure is, pipe in your input from a text file, such as;
                                                           
         del subdir\*.* < yes   ( or c:\dos\yes, best to use a full path)
            
where the file 'yes' is an ascii file containing a single character 'y'.

I use this method all the time, no trouble.
