I have a client table with a field containing email addresses. I am wondering if it is possible to email selected clients directly from this table through an email platform such as Outlook ?

Yes, this is possible, but I would go with CDO for Windows 2000 and later because it is not dependent on the presence of a specific e-mail client being installed on the local machine. All you need is access to an SMTP server, either locally or on the net.
There is plenty of information and sample code on how to implement here and at
