Yes, as long as your helper is in the app/views/helpers directory, and
not inside the cake core libs.
As to actually loading the helper (if it's not already loaded)... If
you're on 1.2 pre-alpha you would use:
loadHelper('Form');
or if you're on bleeding edge 1.2 branch:
App::import('Helper', 'Form');
You can also copy the form helper from the core libs directory to your
app helpers directory if you want to modify the file (and not extend
it). This has the advantage of not having to change all your helper
references in your views to a new helper.
Cheers,
Adam
