You are able to do that. In fact all recipes do exactly that. The difference is the source of the links. It is either RSS feed (which is just an xml), or common html page.

In case of RSS feeds everything is more or less automated, custom programming is required for extracting links from common web page.

For an example of this just take a look at this page:
