Of course Yes.
In Ada 95 there are two ways:
1. Machine code insertions - close to what could be done in C++ or
Borland Delphi OP but little bit more complicated .
2. Use assembler (GAS or NASM or any other) to write what you need,
compile it and than link it to your Ada program. Of course one need to
write Ada interface (*.ads) to that Assembler code.
The second way is very clean and simple.
