Yep!

You can search for:

any number of characters      *
spaces or punctuation           |
any one character                 ?
beginning of a line                ^
end of a line                          $
any one of                           [ab]
any except                          [^ab]
any from-to                         [a-f]

Though I don't see why you'd want to search ^ or $.
