Yes, but: apache2 directory, /opt/local/apache2/bin, is not included  
there. If you want to include that, you could modify your ~/.profile  
or ~/.bash_profile to include (provided that the installation is by  
default):
PATH=/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/opt/local/apache2/bin:$PATH

Different shells use different inifiles, I'd say .bash_profile is the  
safest. You see your shell with command 'echo $SHELL'.

For casual uses, which I'd expect the manual launches of Apache  
software to be, it could be sufficient to write the path explicitly  
(the tab key completes directory names).
