For your activity, yes. See here for a project that does this:
http://github.com/commonsguy/cw-advandroid/tree/master/Camera/Picture/
If you are looking to change the behavior for the entire device, the
best you can do is try to create an activity that responds to
ACTION_SEARCH -- the user *might* be prompted to choose between your
application and the built-in search system. I have not tried this and do
not know how well it will work, if at all.
