Yes.

Exactly how is up to your application, but it's easiest for a console app...

Try creating a List of strings t class level, and each time your user enters a command, add it on teh bottom.
Then, when they press the up arrow key, you can move back through the list, showing them one by one on your command line.

As already suggested by our Original, a simple list could be enough. For a more advanced approach (only if you need it) have a look at Command Design Pattern[^].
