Yes, although it depends on a lot of things: AI surrendering is based on the difference between your score and his. Blockading his planets will decrease his resource production and therefore decrease his score.
Also, blockades make the population unhappy. Throw in some local military victoris and anarchy group intel projects and you might be able to force the planet to revolt and form a new empire. A one-planet empire would be far easier to force into surrender than a fully-fledged AI.
(response within 10 minutes, how many other forums can say that?)
Damn it - beaten by 2 minutes. Grrrr.
Be aware though that some modded races have been altered so taht it is almost impossible to force a surrender - especially the psychopathic races (Crysonlite, Rage etc)
