the answer, of course, is "yes". see http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/...l/config/items for built-in items - you might want proc.num which counts number of processes by name (or other properties).

if it's a network service you might want to use net.tcp.service or net.tcp.port - or maybe some other item.
