Yes, it's possible. You can use:

  • Powershell (example)
  • Batch file, with or without task scheduler (example on link above)
  • Task Scheduler and a VBScript (example)
  • VBScript and WMI __InstanceModificationEvent event (reference)
  • .NET's FileSystemWatcher (example)
  • Third party software (some suggestions)

Concept is called DirectoryWatcher/FileWatcher, you can google it by these keywords for your programming language. It's represented in most languages now.
