Yes, you can. This is how I'm doing it:

string templateText = File.ReadAllText(Host.ResolvePath(templateFileName));
Engine engine = new Engine();
string output = engine.ProcessTemplate(templateText, Host);
//this is optional - record all output to your file of choice:
File.WriteAllText(outputFilePath, output);
