          The answer is yes. SQOOP is the tool you are looking for. It has an 
import option to load data from from any jdbc compliant database into hive. It 
even creates the hive table for you by refering to the source db table.

Hope It helps!..

Subject: Loading data into hive tables

Hi,
                I want to know if there is any way to load data directly from 
some other DB, say Oracle/MySQL etc., into hive tables, without getting the 
data from DB into a text/rcfile/sequence file in a specific format and then 
loading the data from that file into hive table.

Regards,
Aditya
