Yes, it is possible. It will only work if they have HTML enabled email. What program do you use to send you email? If you use Outlook Express, I can tell you how to do this. Not too framiliar with other programs, so...

Most email servers except HTML mail:

Where you would type your message, just type HTML.

This doesn't work in Outlook Express. In that, you have to edit the source.

Sure...Open Outlook and hit Create Mail. Then got to View>Source Edit. This will allow you to edit the source of your email. Now, just create your HTML form and insert it into the source for your email. You will need some sort of form handler, either a CGI or a mailto. If you need more help, let me know.
