With a couple of P/Invokes yes (or use OpenNETCF - www.opennetcf.org/sdf/) See OpenNETCF.Win32.Win32Window class

You'll need to loop through all top level windows using GetWindow with HWND_FIRST then HWND_NEXT. Then check that each is a visible window using GetWindowLong with GWL_STYLE and check for WS_VISIBLE.

Then if you've identified a visible window use SendMessage to send WM_CLOSE to the window to close the application.
