Yep. Heck, you could even keep them in a text file with the friend_add command and then just run that file by /do_file_commands. The nice thing about /friend_add as opposed to just /friend is that /friend toggles between them, while /friend_add will only ever "add" a friend (if it's already on the list, it just fails with an "Already in List" error).
Mmm, I actually like that idea so much I think I'm going to start keeping my own list in a .txt. I have a lot of alts, so that is a pretty easy way of keeping them all updated.
