Yes, you can for example use something like
<project>
<path id="classpath">
<fileset dir="C:\mylibs">
<include name="**/*.jar"/>
</fileset>
</path>
<target name="compile">
<javac srcdir="mySrc" destdir="myClasses">
<classpath refid="classpath"/>
</javac>
</target>
</project>
The above (escpecially the javac-task) may contain errors.
