You cannot view actual data using Cat command. If you use Cat command, it will display non-readable characters and configuration file used in the job which created the DataSet.

In short, "no". You use the orchadmin command to view the contents of a Data Set. Beware, though, that Data Sets can contain huge amounts of data.
