Business objects with no properties and data binding

Is it possible to data bind a web control (DropDownList) to a list of
business objects which do not have properties but accessor methods instead:

public class State
{
  private String _abbr;
  private String _name;

  public String GetAbbr()
  {
    return this._abbr;
  }

  public String GetName()
  {
    return this._name;
  }
}

Thank you,
Alex
