Yes. Those are epoch seconds

Code:
#!/bin/ksh

getdate()
{
perl -e '
    use POSIX qw(strftime);
    $mydate = strftime "%c", localtime($ARGV[0]); 
    print $mydate; ' $1
}   

dt=$( getdate 12345678)
echo $dt

The %c format specifier may need to change to match what you want in your own locale. See the date man page for an explanation of all of the date format specifiers.
