No, not in a table in Word. Word's tables are simply used to provide
organized presentation of information - not like Excel's tables at all.

You could do it in Word with a Macro. You could record a new macro while
choosing and inserting a number into the table, and then modify/edit the
macro created to use the RND() function in Visual Basic to place a number
into the table.

There is an easy way. Rather than:
Table > Insert
do
Insert > Obkect > Microsoft Excel Worksheet


You can put formulas like:
=RAND()
in the cells. When you click away from the embedded worksheet, it looks
just like a table!
