Yes. You could have a single computer set to forward to all your  
users' computers, or (slightly harder to do but also harder for users  
to defeat) create and install a client on each of your users' machines  
that receives messages over a custom protocol you design and then  
notifies with those messages locally on each machine.

Keep in mind that, no matter what, your users can turn off the messages 
—either by turning off forwarding (if you do it that way), or by  
disabling the client app in Growl's preferences, or by turning off  
Growl itself. Don't bury them in messages they'll want to shut out, or  
they will. :)

Also, you will be writing software one way or the other. Growl alone  
is not an origin for notifications; it is a conduit. You'll need to  
write an app to be that origin.
