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.)
