Yes - set your route in map mode using key 9. Your route is coloured blue and the points are shown in a light blue circle. Double click on this circle to change the points to the preferred direction of travel.

Or "9" key to veiw the map, and use "shift + left click" on the blue circles. Another way is to click the Destination boards.
