Sure! As long as you comply with the open-source license, you can use pieces of the source code in your own software. You might particularly be interested in the subfunctions (CPsubfunctions folder), or in following the instructions to run CellProfiler modules “headless” (that is, without the GUI). Within CellProfiler, check out Help > General Help > DeveloperInfo for further information for developers – especially the section “Running CellProfiler without the graphical user interface”.
