Absolutely it's possible. Last year my p.c rebooted everytime I ran any sort of scanning software (antivirus/adaware etc). I googled it and many reports of mysterious reboots put it down to dust.
I took the case apart and the dust was half an inch thick with the fans almost clogged. I spent a good hour with q-tips and a hair dryer ever so gently removing it and it worked like a dream afterwards.
Of course you may have other probs, but if the reboots have stopped, dust was the likely cause.
