Yes. See:
http://graphics.stanford.edu/~kekoa/rcx/#Rom
http://www.crynwr.com/lego-robotics/ (have you seen this one already?)
http://www.multimania.com/legos/
The goal has been to control the RCX using programs written in a standard,
high-level language such as C.
Markus Noga has put together some source (he calls it an OS) which you can
use to interface between code you write and the RCX. It's based on a
compiler called GCC.
I am working on finishing a ROM Reference based on my notes at the first
site listed above.
