Yes, or you could use the amidi tool.
But you should send valid MIDI commands if some MIDI device is
listening at the other end.
I once used 'cat ATO > /dev/ttys00' for
testing a modem, that was
slick, but what commands are sent in MIDI?

To see how such commands look like, run "amidi -p virtual -d" and play
some .mid file to the virtual port.
