Yes you can. Just pick "Personalize this page" then in the lower left click on Windows Update Catalog then choose your operating system and it will come back with 2 lists, Critical Updates and Patches. Click on the list and you will have the option to sort and it will bring back the entire list, download to wherever you like and you will have them for future use.

Keep in mind Service Pack 1 should be out in a few months, and will contain all of those updates in a single file.
