Sure you can.  Do it all the time.


|     Pipe the output from one command into another command.

&     Run two commands with a single command line, e.g.
       copy x.txt y.txt & copy a.dat b.dat

||    Run the command to the right only if ErrorLevel > 0
       copy x.txt z.txt || echo Error!

&&    Run the command to the right only if ErrorLevel = 0
       copy x.txt z.txt && echo Success!
