Yes! You can use the api – SetConsoleTextAttribute(). See the code snippet below.

// Set text color as Yellow with white background.
SetConsoleTextAttribute(
    GetStdHandle( STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE ),
    FOREGROUND_INTENSITY              | // Set Text color
    FOREGROUND_RED | FOREGROUND_GREEN | // Text color as Yellow.
    BACKGROUND_INTENSITY              | // Set Background color
    BACKGROUND_RED | BACKGROUND_GREEN | BACKGROUND_BLUE ); // White Bg.

Please note that you can mix red/green/blue constants to make new colors. Have fun.
