Yes.

You can use tcpreplay to send packets to another machine. You have to
do a bit of work, though. First, you can change the source and
destination IP addresses for all packets with the '-e' flag. So calling
./tcpreplay -i eth0 -e 1.1.1.1:2.2.2.2 test.pcap
will send all packets in 'test.pcap' through interface 'eth0', rewriting
the source IP for all packets to '1.1.1.1' and the destination IP to
'2.2.2.2'. However, you should also change the layer 2 source and
destination MAC, which can be done with the '-I' and '-k' flags.
./tcpreplay -i eth0 -e 1.1.1.1:2.2.2.2 test.pcap -I 11:11:11:11:11:11 -k
22:22:22:22:22:22
This rewrites the source MAC to '22:22:22:22:22:22' and the destination
MAC to '11:11:11:11:11:11'. Of course, if the destination computer is
in your subnet, the dest MAC should be its MAC, otherwise, it should be
the MAC of your gateway. The source MAC should be your compy's, but
this shouldn't really be necessary.
So, to recap, get the IP of the machine you want to send to, then the
MAC of that machine (if it's in your subnet) or your gateway (if it's
not), then place that info into the tcpreplay call, and you should be
able to resend captured packet data to another computer.
