Yes.

There's a small getting-started somewhere, I suggest you try that; it 
covers all that. I tried it a few weeks ago, and IIRC Pyrex creates some 
C code that you have to compile into a shared library with your favorite 
C compiler. The shared library can then be imported in Python as a module.
