Yes, you can. Create your helper, say views_helper.php:

if(!function_exists('view_loader')){

  function view_loader($view, $vars=array(), $output = false){
    $CI = &get_instance();
    return $CI->load->view($view, $vars, $output);
  }
}

$view is the view file name (as you would normally use), and $vars an array of variables you want to pass (as you would normally do), pass a true as optional third parameter to have it returned (as it would normally happen) as content instead of it just being loaded;

Just load your helper (or autoload it):

$this->load->helper('views');
$data = array('test' => 'test');
view_loader('myview', $data)
