.yy file contains rules to generate Lexical Analyzer code. Whose output is used subsequently by a Parser. Flex is a well-known tool for building Lexical Analyzer code. After that you can use tools like Bison for building Parser code. So yes any syntax which is Context Free can be parsed using above tools.
