Sure! You can use:

	%ProgramFiles%\WPKG\wpkginst.exe --SETTINGSFILE=%WPKGROOT%\settings.xml

i use a recipe like that:

 <package
        id="wpkg-settings"
        name="WPKG Settings"
        revision="20120120:2"
        priority="5"
        reboot="false">
        <depends package-id="wpkg" />

        <check type="file" condition="datemodifyolderthan" path="%WPKGROOT%\settings.xml" value="@%SystemRoot%\system32\wpkg.old" />

        <install cmd='%ProgramFiles%\WPKG\wpkginst.exe --SETTINGSFILE=%WPKGROOT%\settings.xml' />
        <upgrade include="install" />
        <downgrade include="upgrade" />
 </package>


Consider that settings are applied but used the next time wpkg run, so
if you write recipe that depend on some settings.xml modification, take
some precautions.
