Yes, this can be done.

?System`*

will provide a list of all built-in symbols (constants,
variables and functions). But before you use this be aware
version 6 has ~3000 built-in symbols. So, this really isn't a
good way to just browse through the built in stuff.

But perhaps you were interested in a list of stuff you have
defined. If so,

?Global`*

will generate that list.
