As Sean said, I don't think so.  There may be a fuse layer to do it, but
why not take a look at flashrom (http://linuxbios.org/Flashrom)?  It is
a way to flash your BIOS from a running linux system.  Your motherboard
may or may not be supported, but if it is, it's a lot easier than the
dos boot method.
