Yes, as Peerless answered...

But...
Enabling ANY application that is dependent on an established and stable internet connection (other than an Anti-Virus program) to launch automatically on startup is an extremely bad idea.

Regardless of the numerous applications out there that come with the defaults set to auto-launch on start, it is a very foolish thing to do... The likelihood of the application launching before you have a stable connection is very great.

There can be only 2 marginal justifications for auto-launching a p2p client...
Because the authors of the client wish to more or less force you to share files whenever you are connected to the internet...
or
Laziness bordering on a medical problem status !!!

ALWAYS best for you to drive as much as possible.
