Yes, see the tables= parameter of exp. You can use SQL to generate a
file of table names you can edit into a series of tables= parameters.
Be aware that from version 7.0 - 7.3 that there was a 99 table name
limit per export. But a 1000 tables would only need 11 jobs and it is
a trival task to generate a comma delimited list of tablenames to
edit. I have not checked the limit for 8+, but suspect it is still
99.
