Probably; something this simple works for me:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<kml xmlns="http://earth.google.com/kml/2.1">
<Folder>
<name>Parent folder</name>
<LookAt>
<longitude>1</longitude>
<latitude>2</latitude>
<range>1000000</range>
</LookAt>
<Placemark>
<name>Point A</name>
<Point>
<coordinates>3,4</coordinates>
</Point>
</Placemark>
<Placemark>
<name>Point B</name>
<Point>
<coordinates>5,6</coordinates>
</Point>
</Placemark>
</Folder>
</kml>
Here the LookAt doesn't point at anything in particular, but there's
nothing stopping you from LookingAt contained points or anything else.

another kml file (local, but moving it to a web server later) that
holds all the points. In the doc.kml file I put the starting point,
the screen overlay, and the network link. It is working just llike it
should now.
