Yes. Assuming you are comfortable using the mysql client program you could
use:
CREATE TABLE newtablename SELECT * FROM existingtablename;
In addition, if you have an existing table and need to load data from a
text file you could use:
LOAD DATA INFILE 'textfilename.txt' INTO TABLE existingtablename;
There are many variations on these themes, but this should get you pointed
in the right direction.
Hope it helps.
