Yes. See here:
Code:
ls -l file | 
awk     '{split ($1, X, "")             # split the mode in $1 into single chars
          for (i=2; i<=10; i++)         # run across 9 chars starting from 2
                 PERM+=2^(10-i)*        # sum binary weight of position times
                        (X[i]=="-"?0:1) # 0 if char is a dash else 1
          printf "%o\n", PERM}'         # print octal value
