- For Surfulater: yes. You can create links as Plain or HTML. Here’s some info from the excellent help:

Plain: sulkb://kb=MyKnowledge,Fid=5040,Rid=5068
HTML: Atlantica Blended Wing Body

Handling moved and deleted articles

External Links specify the knowledge base name, the folder the article is in and the article itself. If an article is moved from the folder it was in when an external link is created, to a different folder, Surfulater won’t find it in the original folder. When this happens, Surfulater searches the knowledge base for the article and displays it, along with a pop-up tip informing you that it has moved. You can update the external link in the source document to correct this if you want. If the article has been deleted, a message is displayed indicating the article was not found.

Locating the Knowledge Base

External links include the name of the target Knowledge Base, however they do not include the name of the folder the KB lives in. This enables KB’s to be moved to a different drive or folder and links still work.

In order for Surfulater to locate a KB specified in an external link, it must be in one of the two known locations: View|Preferences|Folder for Knowledge Bases and ‘Send To’ folders or My Documents\My Surfulater, or already be open in Surfulater.

For Evernote: Yes. However, as noted by Bill/WSP, EN only allows one database (per user account). So one cannot link from one database to another, but of course an EN database can have as many notebooks as you’d like, which for me is just as well.
