yep, of course...

first, you must know a little QT programming (slots, etc...)
http://www.troll.no/qt/tutorial.html

Then , looking at IBM Opendoc stuff may be a good idea . (opendoc is
the thing which inspired Openparts. We have OLE, they have OpenDoc)
http://www.software.ibm.com/ad/opendoc/

Last, you have:
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/library/2.0-api/openparts/openparts.html
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/library/2.0-api/kom-howto/index.html

and more generally, 
http://developer.kde.org/documentation/library/kde-2.0.html
