Yes, it is very possible.
Run 'crontab -e' as apropeate user. Your $EDITOR will open.
Write as described in crontab(5) manual ('man 5 crontab'):
0 */4 * * * your_command
This will run your_command every four hours (first field which minutes,
second field in which hours)
You can also edit the /etc/crontab-file (if avaible on your system.) This
file has a different syntax (you specify the user who is going to run the
command too.)
