It is possible, but it gets boring very quickly. I have run sessions
with the GUI set to "halui".
halcmd setp machine.off 0
halcmd setp machine.on 1
halcmd setp halui.joint.0.home 1
halcmd setp halui.joint.0.home 0

and so on. It's horrible.

There is a curses-based GUI called "keystick" which is a bit less
painful than pure command-line.
