Yes, in rc.xml:

<application name="x-terminal-emulator">
  <maximized>no</maximized>
  <decor>no</decor>
  <focus>yes</focus>
  <position force="yes">
    <x>1200</x>
    <y>500</y>
  </position>
</application>

Instead of 'application name' you can also use
'application class' and 'application title' or even a mix such as 

<application name="x-terminal-emulator" class="terminal" title="Term">

Run this:

$ obxprop | grep OB_APP

Then click the desired window to get the info about it.
