Yes,

SetOptions[EvaluationNotebook[],
 InitializationCellWarning -> False,
 InitializationCellEvaluation -> True]

Then make set your input cells initialization cells and the notebook
will evaluate when you open it.

Test on Mac OS X with two initialized input cells:

Plot[x^2, {x, -2, 2}]

Plot[y^3, {y, -2, 2}]

Both cells automatically evaluate when the notebook is opened.
