Of course! The entire continent is connected by trains. The easiest place to check all trains in Europe is the German rail site:

Yes, of course, I've traveled on this route several times. My preferred route is via direct (no changes) ICE train the entire way (gets into Vienna in the early evening). If you want to break it up, that's also easy too...for example, you could stop overnight in Nuremberg or Passau. The direct ICE train doesn't run at full ICE speed in Austria, but it's still pretty quick.
If you opt for a nondirect (that is, with changes) route, I would suggest avoiding connections with less than 20 minutes between them. German trains can and do run late on occasion.
This route is one of my favorite winter train rides...esp. when the snow is falling.
By the way, just before you get into Vienna proper, keep an eye out the right hand side...you'll get a quick look at the Schonbrunn palace and its Gloriette.

If you are leaving from the Frankfurt airport station, I suggest you also look at departures from the main Frankfurt station.
Unless my eyes deceive me, there is a considerable difference in the quoted price of the ticket, if you buy in advance and limit yourself to that day and time of departure.
The travel time is not all that bad for a trip that covers that many kilometers - a little over 7 hours.
