Yes.

If you are using the wxt or qt terminals in gnuplot 5, then there is a
widget at the top of the plot window that will save the current plot
window contents to any of several formats (png pdf svg).

Otherwise you need to put all the commands into a separate file and
load that file multiple times. E.g.
     set term post; set output 'foo.ps'
     load 'foo.gp'
    set term pdf; set output 'foo.pdf'
    load 'foo.gp'
