What kind of data do you want to interface with? CSV, TXT?

Sure you can :)

Take a look at some of the tutorials here and they can get you started.

I suppose you mean bypassing tools like phpMyAdmin and the likes.

It is quite easy to write your own interface. All you would need to make is a textarea for input and a routine that reads this input, passes it to the database and return the output to you. That requires submit and results in page reloads.

If you want to make it nicer, you can use Ajax, where the query is asynchronously submitted (using JavaScript) to the backend PHP MySQL program, that returns the result to your screen, all without page refreshes or submit buttons.
