Yes.
"Without starting Ubuntu" is vague. I'll assume that you mean "without starting a graphical interface or logging in"
This is quite possible and relatively easy; you'll want to make a single launch file that brings up all of the ROS nodes for your robot, and create an upstart script that runs that launch file. This is how the Turtlebot is configured.
