Well, yes. But be aware of the fact that - depending on the configuration, this *might* not work when issued inside an X session (via an xterm or similar) or may at least lead to... undefined behaviour ;). But it is safe to issue from within a virtual terminal ([Alt][F1-F6]). A magic key combination is [Alt][Ctrl][Backspace]. This immediately kills the X-Session (if it is not disabled in the xorg.conf) - GDM and KDM will then restart right away (KDM will do that forever, GDM only about 3 times) though Slim for example wouldn't.
