Yes.
Go to a console screen (<Ctrl>+<Alt>+<F2> for example), login and type:
startx -- :1
note that you _must_ use two dashes. This tells X to start on a
different screen. You can also tell it which vt to use if you want so
you know where it is (man X).
Once your xmule program is running, you can hit <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<F7> to
return to the X login screen (or <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<F1> to get back to a
console prompt.
Note: anyone at the keyboard can use the same method to get to your
login.
Ciao,
