Yes,
but you would need to build a screen, with BitMapButtons, or...... tool pics with invisible buttons over them, and then put VB script in them to set the Tool Number to that Pic when pressed.

Here  is an example of doing this with loading a Gcode file. You selct the picture of the file and it will load it's GCODE file ready for you to cut.  SheetCam can supply you with a Bitmap of the Gcode file.
