Yes, but it depends on how you do it. HTML files can set cookies as well as
servers. So, have your app set a cookie via an HTML page that the browser can
view locally. If Mozilla is not running, then you could append a cookie to the
cookies.txt, but this is unwise if Mozilla is running.

Not according the the "spec" to which the cookie features are written. No
browser does it, it's designed so that this is NOT possible, which is why sites
use "web bugs", those single transparent pixel images to that the server that
serves it can set a cookie. Cookies can only be read by the domain that wrote
them.
