I don’t believe so. Apple has stated that no third party apps can run in the background (even though some of their apps do this). This is why there was a big deal about ‘push notifications’ last summer (that has since gone no where, unfortunately) – this would allow an app to be sent some data from a server, and then appropriately respond to it.
You might be able to accomplish this if you write an app for a jailbroken iPhone, but then only those users who have jailbroken their phone would be able to install and use your app.
