Yes, you can: search \include in the documentation. \include is the same as
pasting the content of the file in the point you use it.
You should have a good understanding of file structure.
If you can provide a minimal example or a link to the files you've written,
we'll be able to help you.
Anyway, this is the relevant part of the documentation:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/notation/input-structure
