Yes, as long as the HTML file has a URL, that it can be reached by, on an accessible host. I use the "Special->Hypertext...->Command" from the menu and select "goto URL" for this purpose, enter the URL in the "Syntax" section of the pop-up in FrameMaker.
It works very well. The output PDF has a hyperlink to that URL that is clickable and reachable with the default browser. If the HTML is not on a host (with a URL), then I suppose the command "Open Document" (same menu access) *might* also work as long as the HTML file is accessible by the reader of the PDF, but, since I have not tried that, I am not sure of the outcome.
