Yes. The principle and practice are explained in

SJ-11-3 gr0049  . . . . . . . . . .  Stata tip 102: Highlighting specific bars
        . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .  N. J. Cox
        Q3/11   SJ 11(3):474--477
        tip on highlighting a subset of observations in a bar or
        dot chart

Example

sysuse auto

separate mpg, by(mpg == 41) veryshortlabel

graph dot mpg? if foreign, over(make, sort(mpg)) ///
marker(1, ms(Oh)) marker(2, ms(O) mc(red) msize(*2)) ///
legend(off) ytitle("`: var label mpg'")
To get two different representation, you need two variables. That is
much of the purpose of -separate-.
