Welcome to Apple Support Communities

Of course. Just get a monitor and the Mini DisplayPort adapter you need to connect the Mac to the monitor. I recommend you to use HDMI if the monitor uses it. Also, you can connect it to a TV. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241

You can use the Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter. Read the link I gave you in my first reply
