Sure you can, it's a .ini-like file. I didn't suggest it in the first place because it's not documented anywhere what the known keys and value formats are. But if you've already created it once, you see the keys and value formats and you can change it using any text editor or script. nm-system-settings daemon monitors the /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections directory and automatically adds new connections. It also monitors the file changes there to automatically update the connection data in NetworkManager as soon the files change.
