Yes, if you run OpenVPN in point-to-point mode, and have each 
configuration file reference the remote peer with a "remote" 
directive, you will have a completely symmetrical, peer-to-peer style
setup where each side both initiates the connection as well as listens for 
an incoming connection from the opposite peer.
