Yes, but there is more to it than cutting one wire.

If you are only using three wires make sure you have
setup the connectors properly with the loop backs.
Find a setup for a "Null Modem" to see wiring configeration.

Remember: TX -> RX
          RX -> TX

 Hi All

 If I set up a direct link between computers using RS232 can I cut one of the
 wires in the cable (there are usually 3 in the simplest cable,
 send/receive/ground) to ensure one way communication only?
