Yes, you can perform query using workflow actions,

in work flow action you can directly refer to the Sharepoint list and based on some condtion or directly you can perform some like insert delete and update etc operation in sharepoint list.

Not advised. This is a bad approach. Use Sharepoint webservices or the Sharepoint object model instead.
