Hi Mike,

Yes you can. All you have to do is use gsn_text:
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Graphics/Interfaces/gsn_text.shtml

Here is an example

res = True
......
res_at_gsnDraw = False
res_at_gsnFrame = False
plot = gsn_csm_xy(wks,xdata,ydata,res)

tres = True
tres_at_txFontHeightF = 0.02
mlist = (/"J","F","M","A","M","J"/)
do gg = 0,dimsizes(xdata)-1
    gsn_text(wks,plot,mlist(gg),xdata(gg),ydata(gg),tres)
end do
draw(wks)
frame(wks)
