Yes that's possible if you have the Id of the konqueror window.
If you don't care which one of the konqis opens the new page 
you can do the following (in a shell script): 

-------------------------
url='http://www.kde.org'

konqi=`dcop 'konqueror-*' | head -1`

dcop $konqi 'qt/konqueror-mainwindow#1/qt_top_dock/locationToolBar/history combo/combo lineedit' \
setProperty text "$url"

dcop $konqi 'qt/konqueror-mainwindow#1/qt_top_dock/locationToolBar/toolbutton_go_url' animateClick
-------------------------

It opens the URL in the first konqi it finds.


Christian.
