Yes, shared memory is available using the notion of memory- mapped files. For want of a named mapped
file, processes can alternatively map to portions of the systems page file.

Reference for file mapping can be found in MSDN:
Platform SDK / Windows Base Services / Interprocess Communication / File Mapping.
