Yes. If you use DaqMX, you can use simulated devices, see http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3698 for details. 🙂

If you are mostly interested in processing of your "acquired" data, you could just use "simulate signal" from the express palette to generate some data. In the most simple case, a "random number" from the numeric palette might even be sufficient. ;).
