Yes you can, have a look at scripting tag settings.

> **[system.tag.configure | Ignition User Manual](https://www.docs.inductiveautomation.com/docs/8.1/appendix/scripting-functions/system-tag/system-tag-configure)**

> Creates tags from a given list of Python dictionaries or from a JSON source string.

Alternatively to `system.tag.configure` you can create a parameter and bind it to alarm configuration and just use `system.tag.write` (Blocking or Async)
