Yes.  You can do

        from pylab import *
        ...
        axes().grid(True) # For both axes
        axes().xaxis.grid(True) # Just x
        axes().yaxis.grid(True) # Just y

Rather than just an on/off boolean, you can also provide line styles:

        axes().grid(color='r', linestyle='-', linewidth=2)

Cheers,
Mike
