Yes, there are a couple of ways that I know of:
Your town portal scroll and identify scroll add 25 gold worth of value in resale to TP & ID books, respectively. If you got enough newbie chars scrolls it would actually pay (better than a gold per, net) to buy a tome from the shop and fill it up then sell it back.
If you have a Horadric cube (or can "borrow" one) then:
Javelins + (buy) arrows = Javelins (and this stack is normal $, not 1 gold limit)
Axe + (buy weenie) dagger = throwing axes (ditto)
Both of those are fairly profitable.
I rather doubt that even someone with a lot of free time and a whimsical nature would seriously use these methods to make gold. :blink:
