Well, there is some interesting stuff in /mnt/initfs/linuxrc which is a
script executed when device boots but you probably need access to serial
console (pins next to battery) to see the menu or use flasher to set
root device permanently. So the answer is - yes it is possible.
Also the script could be modified to check for the card and some file on
it and boot it only when it is found. And of course it can be easily
modified to stop booting at all ;-)

Use text, mmkay?
And no, right now there is no way to boot off mmc (or network, or..) but
something could probably be hacked up. (See the multiboot-menu packages that
were developed for the ipaq - the basic idea is that all versions share a
kernel, but the initrd can 'chain' to other initrds and roots.)
