Dedicated Server/Play

[ATAG_Bliss]

Yes I believe so.

Go to launcher properties in steam. Use "-server". Load your mission through the dedicated browser. Then go and delete "-server" from your launcher properties and start the game again. You should have a server and your game running at once.

If needed, you could shut down steam after your server is running, and start it back up to run the game normally as well. (at least you could last patch - haven't tried it beta yet)
