Of course it is possible. Have a look at Intent. You can close your activity with finish().

This question has been already asked and answered on StackOverflow:

That is true, I must admit I have asked this one without proper research (it was an extension of another one I have properly researched, I honestly forgot). – MaiaVictor Sep 29 '12 at 17:51
