Yes; you can use e(b) in a r-class program.

The best way to check is by doing, i.e. by writing a dopey little
program, such as

program myprog, rclass
       version 8
       syntax varlist(numeric min=2 max=2)
       regress `varlist'
       tempname b
       mat `b' = e(b)
       return scalar b1 = `b'[1,1]
       return scalar b2 = `b'[1,2]
end
