If you consider Cocoa _only_ those NSObject-based things, then it's not.
Though, you can freely use the complete BSD API in Cocoa programs, and in
this sense it is possible and easy.
If you are searching for a NSObject-based wrappers for BSD sockets et al,
the only thing Cocoa contains is NSFileHandle AFAIK. There are some 3rd party
wrappers with more support; check eg. those Omni frameworks.
