Yes,  If you only changed the partition table and not format it with a new
filesystem.  If you have a backup of your partition table then it is as
simple as recreating it.  If not, you can try out INSERT, a live Linux CD.
It is a rescue CD and it contains gpart and testdisk which can search for
lost partitions.

You can get the 50MB image from:

Good luck.
