~~Yes.~~

Update:

With the files Text1.txt, Text2 and Test in the ordner C:/TEMP/TEMP/TEMP:

C:\Perl\bin>perl -le "BEGIN{@ARGV=map{glob}@ARGV;}print for @ARGV" C:/
+TEMP/TEMP/TEMP/*.*

C:/TEMP/TEMP/TEMP/Text1.txt
C:/TEMP/TEMP/TEMP/Text2.txt

C:\Perl\bin>perl -le "BEGIN{@ARGV=map{glob}@ARGV;}print for @ARGV" C:/
+TEMP/TEMP/TEMP/*

C:/TEMP/TEMP/TEMP/Test
C:/TEMP/TEMP/TEMP/Text1.txt
C:/TEMP/TEMP/TEMP/Text2.txt

BEGIN{@ARGV=map{glob}@ARGV;}
