Yes it is :-)
See chapter: 7.1.8.3 String Functions and the "str" function.

Be warned though, that I have read several posts in the past, that there is
a bug in this function, in connection with the functions ability to prefix
the resulting string with zeros (do some tests of your own to see what
happens if you use the "Prefix Zeros" option).
