Sure, you should be able to do that. For the yum groupinstall you
might have to run that as an exec (someone else here might know more),
but in general you'd have something like the below completely
contrived example:
node foo {
include example
}
class example {
package {
"some_rpm":
provider => 'rpm',
ensure => 'installed',
source => 'http://my_rpm_repo/some_rpm.rpm";;
"some_yum":
ensure => 'installed',
provider => 'yum';
}
exec { "yum installgroup foobar":
unless => "yum grouplist | grep foobar",
}
}

There are a couple of ways to get this information, you could take a
look at reports:
http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ReportReference and the
"Reports and Reporting" link from there. The puppet client can log to
a file or a syslog server, and produces logs of what has been done to
a system. If you really really need to know the exact state that
puppet believes the system is in, you can poke at
/var/lib/puppet/state/state.yaml, but you probably should use one of
the other methods...

Hope that gives you some answer,
cheers
