You have to use an XMI reader to read the UML model into the repository. 
Then you can access it using JMI API. So I guess the answer to your 
question is "yes".

XMI reader/writer, MOF and JMI API implementation is provided by the MDR 
project. UML2MOF tool is just a tool for transforming UML models into 
MOF. You can look at the source code of this tool to find out how to 
transform UML models to something else.

See the UML2MOF tool, or the XML Sample module 
http://mdr.netbeans.org/mdrxml.html.

The MDR itself is the implementation of MOF and JMI.
