Yes, absolutely. Put the program launch command into a .xinitrc file in his home directory. I believe that is all that is required. (Yes, it's kind of like a batch file... the contents of .xinitrc will be executed when X is started... check out the man pages for xinit, to see the sequence of files that are searched for, and executed if they exist.)
