That is certainly possible.
I often prototype code for plugins by doing command-line versions
first, before I work on the GUI.

Well, you need to install Protege at least to the point where you get
the proper Java jar files installed.
Once you have the jar files, you can run the code without needing to
start the Java application.
You will need to add the following jar files to your classpath:
protege-directory/*.jar
protege-directory/plugins/edu.stanford.smi.protegex.owl/*.jar
Then you can use any of the classes and methods in the Protege-OWL API.

Your other choice would be to use the OWL-API to work with your OWL
ontology.
