Yes. There is an example that uses a command link to trigger this. With the newer code you should be able to do this programatically as well. Just supply your own tree model explicitly (you can use TreeModelBase if you wish) and then programatically set the state of each node in that model's state. You now have complete progromatic control over which is the currently selected node and which nodes are expanded.
Another option is to use a Shale View Controller. You bind the tree to your view controller and then in the prerender method you can call tree.expandAll(). Eventually I hope to add an example to show how both of these approaches are done.
