Yes.
My TEXINPUTS is as follows:
.:/home/kayvan/src/tex/sty:!!/usr/share/texmf/{tex,pdftex}/{generic,}//
The !! part specifies the directories that are NOT searched by recursive
directory searching.
What this means is that ``.'' and all its subdirectories are searched, my
personal style file directory (and all its subdirectories are searched),
and then the standard tex directories are only searched by using the
file database (ls-R file).
All of this info is in the kpathsea.info file.
