Yes, using Google Webmaster Tools.

1. On the Webmaster Tools Home page, click the site you want.
2. On the Dashboard, under Diagnostics, click Fetch as Googlebot.
3. In the text box, type the path to the page you want to check.
4. In the dropdown list, select Web. (You can select another type of page, but currently we only accept submissions for our Web Search index.)
5. Click Fetch. Google will fetch the URL you requested. It may take up to 10 or 15 minutes for Fetch status to be updated.
6. Once you see a Fetch status of "Successful", click Submit to Index, and then click one of the following:
   • To submit the individual URL to Google's index, select URL and click Submit. You can submit up to 500 URLs a week in this way.
   • To submit the URL and all pages linked from it, click URL and all linked pages. You can submit up to 10 of these requests a month.

Hi Shaun,

Since you put this in the category of SEOmoz tools, I'm assuming you want an SEOmoz crawl. We do offer a custom crawl that will do up to 3000 pages on demand, with results in a couple of days (or hours, depending on the size of your site). Check it out at http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/crawl-test.
