Yes, and it is even pretty easy:
There is a "Paste" in the context-menu if you right-click somewhere
inside of the windows dos box. Wherever your mouse located, the text
will be pasted where your curser is residing. The starting P character
of Paste is underlined, so t should be avaiable by that accelerator
key.
The context-menu is also available by the Application Menu: If you hit
Alt-Space, then E for Edit, you are getting the same choice, that may
be easier for blind people. So in General Alt-Space, then E, then P
pastes the Clipboard-Content to your dosbox.
