Only if there is an anchor in the page you wish to use.

If, at the desired location of the target page, there is an anchor
named "yada"...

<a name="yada"

....then you could specify the source of the iframe as
"http://www.targetdomain.com/page.html#yada"

Seems to me that would work. But seeing as you have no edit control
over the target page, results may be dicey or may change if the owner
changes his page.

If there is no such anchor I fear you are SOL.
