The description is a little bit vague but, yes, Nominatim can likely do that. There is a command line interface for search. You can install the database locally and then use the local query command exactly in the same way as the search API[1]. I would suggest you run a couple of your addresses against nominiatim.openstreetmap.org and see if the results are useful for you. If that works out, you can set up your own installation[2].
