Yes, and google can help you there, but maybe Database Gateways (successor to Transparent Gateways) would be a more stable and/or supported method?

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/gateways/index.html

IIRC, the license is included with the DB, but you'll need to check that...

Also, depending on what you need, going from SQueaL Server to Oracle is much simpler to do. Just install a compatible Oracle Client on the SQueaL Server server and use a Linked Server in SS. The driver then becomes SS instead of Oracle, if that's workable for your situation.
