Yes, in MATLAB version 4.2. A new print command device driver option allows you to save and reload a figure. The command print -dmfile creates two files, filename.m and filename.mat. The M-file contains the necessary object creation and set commands to reproduce the figure. The generated MAT-file also contains the figure data. Handle values are not maintained.
