Yes. You don't even have to run wine notepad (that was just an example).
$ rm -rf ~/.wine
$ wine your_game_setup.exe
Will launch the game setup with default wine options (Win XP/ALSA/no
virtual desktop/etc.). If your game needs any of those settings
changed, then you need to run winecfg first, or manually edit the
registry.
