Yes, this is possible. If you are on SQL 2005 use the varbinary(MAX)
datatype, if you are on SQL 2000 you need to use the image data type.
"image" is on SQL 2005 as well, but is deprecated.

I have a very simple example on how to work with blobs (binary large
objects) through ADO .Net on http://www.sommarskog.se/blobload.txt.
