Yes you can, just use the /colour tag (English spelling, yay!) in your feature:

/colour="0 255 128"
/product="DnaA protein"
/gene="dnaA"

The "0 255 128" is the "R G B" value to use - in this case a bright greeny blue.

We use this a lot eg. COG group colouring, Enzyme class, similarity score etc.

Also, the latest "User Plot" format also allows multiple plots on the
same panel, each with a different colour (user can specify in
.userplot file) and a legend/key automatically displayed.
