Yes, but depending on what you mean it might be trivial or hard work.
If you mean can someone running Mozilla install your unrelated-to-Mozilla
application then yes, you can install the files anywhere (that the user has
permission to write).
If you mean can you use the XPInstall engine apart from Mozilla the answer
is also yes -- that's how the Mozilla installers get Mozilla itself onto a
new machine. However there is a fair chunk of Mozilla that's downloaded
first as the xpinstall engine (xpcom.xpi) that you'd still have to download
and use, although you could skip the install step for it and delete it
afterwards.
