    Sure you can do that , just you can use numerous T-SQL Queries which you can find out most of them easily by just selecting the needed option then you can tab the script button exists at the above of Server Properties to generate the relevant T-SQL Script like the below T-SQL Query used to change Degree parallelism

    EXEC sys.sp_configureN'max degree of parallelism', N'4'
    GO
    RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
    GO

    And the below one used to enable mixed mode:

    EXEC xp_instance_regwriteN'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE', N'Software\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\MSSQLServer', N'AuditLevel', REG_DWORD, 3
    GO

    Please let me know if any further help is needed
