Sure.

Set up an ODBC connection in windows to the access database.

Then in FoxPro:
local lnHandle, lcSQL, lnRetu

lnHandle = sqlconnect() && Pick your connection from the dialog 
lcSQL = "select * from accesstable blah blah blah"
lnRetu = sqlexec(lnHandle,lcSQL,xCursor)
if allt(alias()) == "XCURSOR" AND lnRetu = 1
    copy structure to mytable.dbf
    *!* Make sure the field names are not more than 10 characters
    use mytable.dbf
    select xcursor
    scan
        scatter to memvar memo
        insert into mytable from memvar 
        select xcursor
    endscan
else
    return lnRetu
endif
Basically, dat it.
