Yes. You can use any .NET library for making HTTP requests to make Valence calls from a non-web app. You will need to harvest the user credentials (the id and the key) by hand for non-interactive use by using one of the API test tools that are available (http://devs.valence.desire2learn.com/2014/10/28/the-api-test-tool-a-developers-secret-weapon/).
