Yes, very possible. What language are you using? I use Perl, and there's a CPAN module called Net::SSLeay that provides Perl wrappers for all the OpenSSL functions. That module also includes a simple example client, which you can see at http://search.cpan.org/~mikem/Net-SSLeay-1.55/lib/Net/SSLeay.pod#EXAMPLES . Because these functions are wrappers, the C version would be roughly the same sequence.
I have other sample clients and servers; ask if you need any more. The OpenSSL site documents each C function, which are named the same as the Perl functions in the example above.
