Do you mean in the form? If so, yes. For example, this code will give you a 
date field (without time) where the year is the the range [this year -100] and 
[this year -18]:

$form->input(
        'dob',
        array(
                'type' => 'datetime',
                'empty' => true,
                'dateFormat' => 'MDY',
                'timeFormat' => '',
                'minYear' => (
                        date('Y') - 100
                ),
                'maxYear' => (
                        date('Y') - 18
                )
        )
)
