Yes.  If you use the Ctrl-K function (or Insert: Hyperlink), you'll get a 
dialogue box that allows you to put in the link and also whatever text you 
want to appear as the link's name.  E.g., if you put "Cindy's web site" 
under "text to display" and "www.cindysphynx.com" under "web page name," you 
can get a result like this:

Check out [Cindy's web site!]

where the bracketed text appears in blue.  Click on it and it links you to 
www.cindysphynx.com.
