Yes, you can ask, and the answer is:
1: Hold in the ON key.
2: Press and release the D (one of the top menu keys).
3: Release ON.
You should see three vertical bars on the screen.
4: Press <- (Delete on the right hand side).
5: Press EVAL.

You will get a message like:
Version HP48-X
Copyright HP 1989
with the X replaced with the ROM version that you have.

To get out of this,
1: Hold in the ON key.
2: Press and release the C key.
3: Release ON.

Have fun with the HP!
