Yes, you can and it's pretty simple (works across all versions since it's a package feature):
$ ipython
Python 2.6.2 (release26-maint, Apr 19 2009, 01:56:41)
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
In [1]: import cx_Oracle as ora
In [2]: con = ora.connect('myuser', 'mypass', 'mydb')
In [3]: cur = con.cursor()
# you can pass positional arguments
In [4]: cur.execute("select pay_id from usr_payroll where pay_id<:p1", (5,))
In [5]: cur.fetchall()
Out[5]: [(1,), (2,), (3,), (4,)]
# you can pass named arguments, too
In [6]: cur.execute("select pay_id from usr_payroll where pay_id<:p1", {'p1':5})
In [7]: cur.fetchall()
Out[7]: [(1,), (2,), (3,), (4,)]

Thanks for that. I'll pass it on to appropriate people
